Jeez. I’m embarrassed for turning into a link blog. But here we are, my friends. And I will try to write something personal and substantial this weekend.

• the hamdog is “a hot dog wrapped in ground beef then deep-fried, topped with chili, cheese, grilled onions, and served in a hoagie roll.”
• nice to see my old professor, michael naimark, get linked by waxy and kottke for his displacements piece(s). 3 years late.
