• When the storm hit our area, WifeGeeding rounded up the kids and got into a closet underneath the stairs (why she didn’t round up the dogs I don’t know).  I think Harry Potter kept them company.  I was busy checking everything out on the back porch trying to get some decent blog material that didn’t materialize.  We had a lot of hail, about quarter and half-dollar size, but that was about it.  I’m sad to report my Altima is still functional.

• For you college kids, here’s an automatic bibliography maker.
• Starwood Hotel & Resorts has started new program for their preferred members in which they can name their own check-in and check-out times.

• Hire a fake girlfriend for $5
• The great Dr. Neil deGrasse Tyson noticed something was wrong with the sky in one of the end scenes of the very attention-to-detail blockbuster Titanic, so he decided to write James Cameron a letter.  Years later, Tyson tells the story and how it has since been corrected.
• Why conservatives increasingly distrust science: 4 theories
