  • Neil Gaiman posted an MP3 version of his Hugo-nominated short story “How to Talk to Girls at Parties.” I listened to it today, lending more credence to the idea that people (including me) are more comfortable listening to prose than reading it online.
  • On the heels of my previous Rifftrax post, the next movie is the classic Gene Wilder version of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory with guest riffer… Neil Patrick Harris? I might like the movie too much to enjoy riffs at its expense, but the Doogie Barney factor has me intrigued.
  • RIP Kurt Vonnegut, one of the all-time greats. My back cover design for the just-released Narbonic, vol. 4 referenced the title of one of Shaenon’s storylines, which in turn referenced Slaughterhouse-5.

    I went to listen to Gaiman’s story this morning, but he’d taken the MP3s down. Your blog entry reminded me to check again, and they’re up now. Thanks for the reminder!
