Geek With (Lots of) Books: The First Step is to Admit You Have a Problem: I like this because I'm bad but not as bad as this guy. Did I mention my new Ikea bookcases are up and looking wonderful? A few things to tidy up and then I'll be flickring my new beauties.

It Doesn't Have To Be Right...: Sexy Sci-Fi: Heaving Bosom Sci-FI is too often missed in sub-genre lists. I dig the similarity to the similarly pulpy crime novel covers of the 50s-60s.

Foodies flock to Twitter-savvy food trucks: Sure, the tech-marketing angle is vaguely interesting -- we can imagine dollar signs ringing up in the eyes of the entrepreneurial sorts -- but it's the idea of Korean-Mexican fusion BBQ served from a truck that intrigues me.

While I'm linking to racy videos for the first and probably last time, here's the video NBC refused to air for PETA. I doubt PETA actually had the money to put it on the air during the Superbowl. They probably got it banned on purpose for the much cheaper web views.

Of course, PETA has a long, weird and often ugly history of using sex to get attention.

Finally, lingerie models rubbing pumpkins makes both the women and the vegetables kind of unappealing. (And I say this as a strict vegetarian.)

Heinlein's Star Fading?
I keep rereading Starship Troopers, The Moon is a Harsh Mistress and some of the "juveniles" (Have Spacesuit, Will Travel, Citizen of the Galaxy & Podkayne of Mars) every year or two and I still think he's miles better than Asimov or Clarke. Still, I haven't even thought of going back to Stranger in a Strange Land, Friday, To Sail Beyond the Sunset (any of the Lazarus Long novels, actually) and -- long separated from the wild libertarian to fascist swings of my teenage years -- I don't have much stomach for his "hairy-chested" prose, as this LA Times piece dubs it. (Nice synchronicity, btw, with Mark over at Cheek nominating R.A.H. for membership in the Manly Writers Corps.)

Also in the LA Times is a list of fave sci-fi novels of 2007 that'll make it's way to my library hold list.

Update: Heinlein's (manly) optimism in an essay on thisibelieve.org -- he's popping up everywhere these days as his Centenary year winds down.

Bone Daddy once asked Are conservative prudes really complaining about Prince's shadow boner?

Yup, they are. Complainer thinks that son might now be gay and have HIV for merely watching Prince's Superbowl halftime show. Many more complaints at The Smoking Gun.
