Many years ago, when I was young and still stuck living in Utah, one of my guilty pleasures was reading the "Letters to the Editor" and shaking my head in wonder and disgust at some of the attitudes expressed there. Once upon a time, the minor impediment of having to write a letter, stamp and address an envelope, and mail one's important opinions to the editorial page address prevented all but the most highly motivated crackpots from weighing in. In the Internet age, the filters are off, the chocks are away. You can fly into the wild blue yonder to…

No word on whether it snacked on kraken. 2013-01-08 No, @WXRT, it's an icthyosaur, a toothy fish-lizard. #omnomnom http://t.co/e8Ccu03n 2013-01-08 For free wi-fi @GarethMalone I forgive #LAX much.

As a resident of Illinois, I can’t participate in the Amazon Affiliates program due to a law passed in the state awhile back that was supposed to protect brick-and-mortar businesses from online businesses that didn’t charge Illinois tax. I thought maybe that might have changed since there had been some stories about the law being ruled unconstitutional, but not according to this newly updated boilerplate from the Amazon Affiliates page. I still get their emails, I just have to keep hoping this will change someday. In addition, if at any time following your enrollment in the Program you become a…

This year’s science fiction books are going to rock. John Scalzi returns to the Old Man’s War universe, there’s a brand new Neil Gaiman novel, and Stephen King’s long-awaited sequel to The Shining. Plus brand new books from Austin Grossman, Nalo Hopkinson, Christopher Priest, Diana Gabaldon, Robert J. Sawyer, Joe Hill… and J.R.R. Tolkien? via All the Essential Science Fiction and Fantasy Books That Are Coming in 2013 So here’s a list of things for me to think about reading this year instead!

Selected by the Guardian’s Review team and a panel of expert judges, this list includes only novels – no memoirs, no short stories, no long poems – from any decade and in any language. Originally published in thematic supplements – love, crime, comedy, family and self, state of the nation, science fiction and…
