The Blood is the Life!

Have some fresh squeezings from the veins of the internet:

• Beer List for our Beer Festival at work. It's world cup themed, and most of the beers have some football-inspired pun for their name. We are also doing world cup cocktails and various other things. The festival runs from Thursday to Sunday of this week, and you're all welcome.


• Science Tarot cards. The art is not to my taste, but the concept and the design is great.


• Chris Huhne launched Wind Week today. You can make up your own jokes.


• Marriage has little effect on child development. Of course, some of us have been saying this for years... Yes, I have been reading the Ethical Slut again. It's a great book.


• A brilliant and thought-provoking essay on the way we use the f-word. Obviously, it contains liberal use of the f-word within in, but I urge you all to read it anyway. It's made me think about how I use language...

And today's meme is a bit of a naughty one, too. tajasel has opened up this year's darkroom orgy. The concept is a simple one: you leave a root comment with your account name. Then you log out, and go and anonymously tell the other people who have commented the detail of your sexual fantasies about them. Yes, it's naughty. Yes, it's public. Yes, it has the potential to involve creepiness. But hell, it looked like fun so I'm taking the risk. Possibly because I'm in an NRE phase and floating around on a cloud of happy at the moment. Go, read, if you see anyone you fancy then tell them. But don't forget to do it anonymously.
