  • Video: US Congresspeople Told Martial Law Would Be Imposed if Bailout Bill Didn’t Pass – Boing Boing – … "In this YouTube clip, Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) says some congresspeople were told in private briefings that if they did not pass the bailout bill, circumstances would soon force the federal government to 'impose martial law.'"
  • The Geek Beat: A Lament for the Old School – Cinematical – Splash Page and Cinemtatical blogger Elisabeth Rappe ponders the disappearance of the leading man in art and, well… life. This is a great column that I'm sure some of you out there (especially the ladies) will really enjoy. Rappe is a consistently excellent "geek beat" writer, so keep an eye out for her byline on Splash Page, too!
  • Berkeley Breathed’s ‘Opus’ Comic Strip Will End Next Month – I haven't been reading the newspaper strip, for some reason. (Maybe because it's in a newspaper.) But this series used to be one of my favorites out there. Has anyone else been checking out? If so, how has it been? Should I be disappointed that it's ending?
  • Blockbuster Online - Nightmare Poll – I'm a bit disappointed that *my* favorite scary film didn't make the cut (John Carpenter's "In the Mouth of Madness"), but it's a decent list all the same. Seriously, though – "In the Mouth of Madness"! It's freakin' Cthulhu! What's scarier than Lovecraft, people?
