21. A History of the World in 6 Glasses, Tom Standage
Another survey class-like book. Lots of good and interesting stories, but after Salt (Kurlansky), I expected similar enthusiasm and never really found it. Still: it’s a fast read and I may be the last one on the planet, but now I know cola (kola) was/is an actual ingredient!
22. Lost in a Good Book, Jasper Fforde
Oh, Thursday: you will get into trouble, won’t you. I think what I like about Fforde so far is that he doesn’t provide (or indeed ever promise) tidy endings. That bothered me a tiny bit with Lost in a Good Book at first, but after a few days of thinking about it, it makes total sense—not least because now I’m on the hook to read the rest of the Thursday series. (:
This morning on Instagram: the VW Bus, orange.
Level-ish, by cbowns; Tiny little VW bus & his Vespa friend, by jayzombie.
I am an unapologetic sucker for well-done hand-drawn signage. Look at that “g”! And the ampersand, are you kidding me? Wonderful.
So, how long until Michael Shannon signs on for a Chet Baker biopic? Right?
This week on Instagram: missing California.

…I’d much rather be someone who tries and fails then someone who makes fun of people because they look funny before they’re good at the thing they are practicing.
Hellbox. Damage. Smelt. Recast.: On Writing (50,000 words in 30 days, this year)
Word.
Check it! NFL Network’s chrome is massively improved. Possession indicator and time outs remaining are much easier to understand at a glance. And how about that play clock?
Nicely done.
Diesel! So great.
Palko had a few bright moments last night—most(?) of which managed to coincide with meltdowns on our part—but man alive, he has every right to be annoyed with Bowe. Gotta put your arms out, dude.
