random link roundup

Posted on June 13, 2009June 13, 2009 by Eric, your haikuist

What has Worio recommended to me this week?

  • A profile of Saskatchewan premier Brad Wall. When I left Saskatchewan, I never dreamed that less than 10 years later it would be a booming economic powerhouse lead by an Armani-wearing young populist. [globe and mail]
  • Charles Babbage: father of the computer, hater of musicians. [hark a vagrant]
  • There was a time I would have listed Hal Hartley’s cult classic Trust as my all-time favourite movie, so I’m glad to see it get a little love. If it ever comes out on DVD, I’ll finally be able to ditch my VCR. [avclub]
  • The Science News Cycle. [phd comics]
  • The Acid Western. El Topo and Dead Man are just the beginning. [wikipedia]
  • 25 truly great Calvin and Hobbes strips. Reading these reminded me of just how brilliant Bill Watterson’s strips were (no matter what certain girlfriends I could mention have to say about it). [progressive boink]
