shameless plug

political art:

many of you probably know about The Anticraft as being a site with spooky art projects for all levels of craftiness. but have any of you checked out their blog? there are links to all sorts of good stuff!
in particular i think Steal This Sweater is cool. all sorts of protest-related knitting ideas, some of which you can download, including a design for mittens that show the number of casualties killed in iraq in the time it took to knit the mittens. the chic who runs the website also writes a downloadable magazine called saddlesore about biking instead of using a car. i wish i could do that, but weather and distance to some of the things i do regularly make it impossible....still, i will do what i can now that i actually have my tires pumped up.

another shameless plug

do you like science fiction? do you like listening to stories in addition to reading them?
listen to Escape Pod. It is basically a sf magazine (actually pays for it's stories and therefore gets real talent). damn good stuff. they just finished a series that is all hugo nominee authors.

celtic fix anyone?

i wanna go to this
and this!

who's up for it?
