Linkalicious
Finally updated Jim Behrle's link to his new Blogspot address. Here are a few more links of things I'm reading:
- A press release for the Care and Share event I'm reading at in December. Cool lineup.
- A fun interview with Daniel Handler, the alter ego of Lemony Snicket and also sometime accordion player with The Magnetic Fields. Loved this answer: "I can't imagine why you would want to take your child to see what the career of a writer is like, because it mostly consists of sitting in a room typing, or going to the library and looking something up." My "career" also consists of drinking, playing pool, and pontificating.
- The Comics Curmudgeon. Because the newspaper is often on the kitchen table when I visit my mom, she's had to listen many times to me ranting about how bad most first-run comic strips are. (Exceptions: Frazz, Pearls Before Swine). I could write that blog if I didn't already throw all my time down the poetry well.
- Daniel Negreanu's Poker Journal. Negreanu is great fun to watch on the gajillion poker shows on TV--he's bright, engaging, and an excellent player. This is his blog.

We recently got Frazz in our paper; Pearls about a year ago. Pastis loses me about twice a month, but some of his stuff is brilliant. Isn't that right, zeeba neighba?
There's a decent poker blog at identitytheory.com (including this month a set of reviews of current poker books). The site also has a pretty good poetry section. I only bring this up so you can potentially be more efficient throwing your time away.

Thanks for the heads up on a great blog!
I've never heard of "Comics Curmudgeon," but I'll be a regular reader from here on out.

Thanks also for the comics blog.
My favorite comic strip for a while now (it's not linked in Comics Curmudgeon) is Dykes to Watch Out For by Alison Bechdel. She used to live in Minneapolis, then several years back she moved to (I think) somewhere on the east coast. The strip is updated every couple of weeks or so. Not available in most Sunday comics sections...
