Reading: "Set in Darkness". Web.


What I'm Reading
The eleventh Inspector Rebus was Set in Darkness. Has another complicated plot with three different crimes to solve, two related to shinanigins over the Scottish Parliament. Not bad, managed to work out a couple of the plot points in advance. Found the ending a bit unsatisfying. One of the crimes solves itself, with the other two Rebus works it out but doens't get a conviction.

Only six more to go before the series ending, but I'm flagging a bit. Have one more left in the current omnibus.

Dirt not so cheap, black revolution needed.

D&D alignment posters

Illustrated frequency of body parts in music (MeFi, slightly NSFW)

Olympic panoramas: Before 100m, pool, opening ceremony.

Video. The Georgian crisis reminded me of this old Yes Prime Minister on Salami Tactics and the nuclear deterrent. Cash for Gold ad (seems to be genuine, checked out the url).

Yes, like many things I've loved, it does truly suck.

I'm not buying Luthor as Lawful Evil.
He really believes he's saving his fellow humans from a megalomaniacal alien being who's taken over the world.
