Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

In re Vikings, I remember several years ago someone teaching a college-level course in medieval Scandanavian history (yes, Vikings) found that at least one of her students had done a search and found a site by Viking recreators (not the SCA) and had used that as their primary source for a report ... it did not turn out very well, since they were not as accurate as one would wish.

Should have gone with the SCA, we regularly publish pamphlets with full documentation. One of them at least was used as someone's Ph.D. dissertation.

not your mom's socks.

He just yelled "TESSERACT!" from the other room. That was a little unnerving.
Should you go check to make sure he's still there?

Art Crawl!!!

Tiny House "librairie" - is that a bookshop in French?

I love this - particularly because their cat looks so much like my dear, departed Tanuki.

"librairie" - is that a bookshop in French?

Yup.
"librairie d'occasion" = used book store
"la maison qui chemine" = literally, the house that walks along (a path) but I'd probably say the wandering house.
