A great satire about the tobacco industry that really doesn't take sides.

Scottish doctor gets sucked in by Idi Amin's charisma and later regrets it (I mean seriously). Good film - Forest Whitaker is great.

Branch holder turns your every day branch into a saber.

"A project based on a childhood memory. Inspired by the children's ability to make a lot out of nothing by imagination."

But nowadays children need an imagination aid. Brilliant.

Banksy is so much more than a graffitti artist anymore. His clever, thought provoking art is found in some of the finest museums around the world. He did a huge multi media museum exhibition in Bristol last year that was amazing! His work is often simple and very tongue in cheek. But is thought provoking and beautiful as well. Art is everywhere if you choose to look up from your phone to find it.

Beautiful sculptures by Jason deCaires Taylor create amazing underwater scenes while also providing substrate for artificial reefs.

Slightly creepy, but certainly poignant.
Crazy to think of all of that ending up inside a coral reef, perhaps to terrify some diver thousands of years from now...

This magical audiobook is FREE for the time being to celebrate the release of the storybook. In case you were wondering, this is the not-for-children children's book. I'm sure parents will love it even more than I did.

One of the many new strong contenders in the really-long-story-arcs fantasy genre. Great characters. Tight plot lines.

I'm reading the first book in this series by George R. R. Martin and I'm loving it. I don't normally go for fantasy novels but this book is appealing in ways I wasn't expecting. The characters are all so strong–you really get attached to them. Also, the writer uses humor really well through the dialogue of the characters. Tyrion is my favorite.

George R. R Martin is really different with his novels, and not only weaves deep characters but can be very ruthless with them in a way that keeps you wanting more and more.

I should stop plugging Erikson but I think the Malazan: Books of the Fallen is much more fun. (Plus the entire series has been published, so no annoying waits for books to come out).

I refuse to join the antinomian decline of grammar, punctuation, and syntax.

No snarky songs by Vampire Weekend will dissuade me from using the Oxford comma.

I am the boss of my own comma usage.

jenward

jenward commented 1 year, 10 months ago

Oxford comma? More like ROCKSford comma! I'm a graphic designer, and it kills me when clients make me omit it. I will continue to use it until the day I die. (I forgive Medeski, Martin and Wood for their transgression.)
