At least they made the water clear.
Elections, Muppets, Hospices, Accents, and More – a link dump.
Kurt Vonnegut motivational posters. One of these days I’ll get around to reading something of his.
Pencil art – but not the way you think.
This article on hospice care is a hard article to read, but worth it.
A practical plan for when you feel overwhelmed is exactly what it says it is. Turns out I’ve been using most of these for years without having read them in a blog, but the bit about doing 15 minutes of fast things, followed by 35 minutes of something hard, is worth giving a try I suspect.

Awesome use of negative space in IBM “Outcomes” campaign
Best Drunk Driving Public Service Annoucement for today’s geek ever:
An interesting look at the evils of shoes and not just heels, but pretty much all of them. I’m a big fan of MBTs, which they diss just a bit, but which increased my balance quickly enough that my martial arts instructor noticed. That’s progress.

Just refreshed my profile on the National Novel Writers’ Month site for November. If you’re also doing NaNoWriMo this year, feel free to “writer buddy” me – I’m kirabug, as usual.

Congratulations Mr. Roy Halladay
Roy Halladay just pitched a no-hitter in the first game of the National League Division Series.
A no-hitter. Only the 2nd one in postseason history. His 2nd no-hitter this year.
Wow.
My brother, sister, & I all celebrated together on Twitter. Not to be outdone, Mom called all of us. Yeah, that’s right. Some parents call their kids for major holidays. My parents call me for the playoffs.
Or in this case, major Hallidays.
Thank you, Phillies, for a wonderful evening.
