Assorted links

The TBA is slowly taking over the world.

Our photo contest deadline is tonight. Don't miss the opportunity to show the Eclipse committee that spelling matters.

We have expanded our stable and now come to you from EuroDisney and have doubled up our reporting from the land of the Sunday Silence invitational. We have allowed a certain calcium ingesting rodent to join the ranks as well as a guy who does not get paid for putting hats on people. The Red Wings are killing me and the root of all evil but I recommend reading about X-Men racing here.

The Illinois Equine Humane Center recently rescued a few horses from a dispersal sale and like too many organizations out there, could really use some assistance. It's too late for tax season '08 and it's not the holidays but if you have it within your means to help a rescue, any rescue, please do so. Spread the word or volunteer.

The annual cost of direct mail, for any charity, ranges from $25-over $100, per recipient, depending on how fancy the mailers are. Fewer than 3% of mailers elicit a donation. Please help them spare some of that cost by passing this along.
