Cold Chillin'

Like, really cold. For surely. It was -24 wind chill this morning. Hung around 8ish for the day. It's 1 degree again. Kelvin.

Speaking of the environment, all sorts of wild smart people over at TED.Com. That link will take you to all the Green stuff, but the site is full of all kinds of magnificent innovations.

If you use this site to spring-board to everything 9L, and especially if you're looking forward to the new issue, got the new issue, or are interested in the music feature we're reading for right now, you should get over to the blog and update yo' funky selves.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go write a prompt for my Ultra-Contemporary Poetry class.

UIUC MFA Graduate Kim Chinquee has a new book out! Go Dig.
