A La Carte (7/19)

Thursday July 19, 2007

Books: The NY Times has an early review of the new Harry Potter. "With each installment, the Potter series has grown increasingly dark, and this volume ... is no exception." "Ms. Rowling has fitted together the jigsaw puzzle pieces of this long undertaking with Dickensian ingenuity and ardor."

Politics: Obama says "sex education for kindergarteners, as long as it is 'age-appropriate,' is 'the right thing to do.'"

Humor: Pecadillo shares a strange story and shows that he shares my dislike for cats, evil creatures that they are.

Du Jour: Timmy Brister writes about being "a Misfit in a World of Impermanence." Well worth the read, this one.
