Suggested articles for the day:

This isn't an article but an interesting audio report from NPR concerning Sci-fi themes in modern literature and movies. Jeff had this linked ages ago but I just got around to listening to it. Thanks Jeff. (And, really, if you want to know most future article links I'll be posting here, just go to Jeff's blog now - he always has the good shit.)

Here you go. Directly cutting funding for the arts to cover emergency disaster costs just makes sense. Nevermind the $202 000 000 000 for the war in Iraq. Just sayin'. (Anyone remember back in '02 or '03, Larry Lindsey saying the war might cost about 200 billion? Who's laughing now, baby.)

And this from Hollywood, who, like the rest of you I'm sure, is pleased to know you can add Walmart to the list of Homeland Security agencies that are looking to protect you from terrorists.
