Post Election Afterglow

Well, things turned out all right this week, after all...
As the man said, we're not out of the woods yet - and we may not be for awhile. But it's good to know that there's someone who knows how to read a map.

A.J. Michel has a new project from her Syndicate Product - I contributed a small piece for the issue.

Michael Crichton died on Tuesday... I grew up reading and watching a lot of Dr. Crichton's work, and do mourn the loss of a very talented and intelligent individual. Whatever your thoughts towards his literary skills, he did know how to tell a story and keep one's interest... and he pulled off a very neat trick of misdirection, allowing him to sneak in a lot of info of what his books were really about - mainly about the misapplication of technology in our lives.

Smart man - but even a smart man didn't know enough not to fuck with Dori Dorreau.
