Note to DragonCon attendees:
The brains at the DOT have decided to do work on the I-75/85 connector throughout Labor Day weekend, so avoid I-75 and I-85, particularly southbound, if possible. If you're driving, take I-285 to I-20 to get downtown. A fairly simple route is to get off at the Boulevard exit, go north to Freedom Parkway by the Carter Center and then west into town. (Boulevard becomes Moreland Ave.) For traffic information, there's georgia-navigator.com [link]
I'll be volunteering Saturday at the Decatur Book Festival [link] Yes, every conceivable stripe of fan and reader will be clogging the streets of metro Atlanta this weekend.
This is probably too late to help, but I just thought of it. The brain, she is slow.
My friend Kevin is becoming quite the photographer.
His work is going to be shown at the Minneapolis Mayor's office and city council chambers for the next two months, and just today he captured photos at the Anti-War demonstration at the Republican National Convention and set them to some rather familiar music.
It's up on Youtube.
Stop, hey, What's that sound?

This may not be the bestest comic in the world, but I think the issue's important enough that folk who don't read Bitches might like to hear about it.

Today's Kerfuffle Bunny will be delayed until later this evening.
A Buffista favorite, International Talk Like A Pirate Day is on a Friday (September 19th) this year.
I served as substitute recapper at TWoP, for last week's episode of
Eureka,
"Phased and Confused."
You can read the recap, here.
(Please ignore the errors. They were as glaringly obvious to me this morning -- as I was oblivious to them on Sunday, when I submitted the piece. Oy.)
I'll also be writing TWoP's "weecaps" for
How I Met Your Mother,
when the series starts up again, next week.
