Someimes—rarely—I disconnect for a couple of days. This past weekend I basically just hung out, walked my dog, went shopping, and had a perfectly nice absence from the Web.
Unfortunately that meant I had something like 200 RSS articles to plough through, and I just couldn't bring myself to stop dealing with (most) emails. And I have a few articles to read:
- Everything you know about the British burning Washington 100 years ago yesterday is wrong.
- Why are Web-special airfares so rare in the U.S.?
- There is a major effort underway to scan and digitize millions of historical weather records for climate research.
- Burger King is in talks to buy Canada's Tim Horton brand, yet another thing we Americans will have to apologize to the Canadians for. Whenever we get around to it.
- Chicago's Jackie Robinson West All-Stars Little League team lost their game yesterday against South Korea, becoming the runners up in the Little League World Series—which is still pretty awesome.
Now back to your regularly-scheduled week, already in progress...
