Old Blogs, Old Innumeracies, Old Star Treks

 Years ago, I started to keep a second blog to track all the innumeracies I was stumbling across in mainstream media.  Like so many things in life, I just let it go after a while.  The blog is still out there, and I thought to check on it when my brother brought my attention to an odd throw-away line in an old Star Trek episode:

The Media's Innumeracy and Sciencific Illiteracy: Nice one, Kirk

(I assume the misspelling in the title of the blog was intentional on my part?  I certainly hope so...)

Maybe I will make another post over there in less than 10 years (or did I mean 1 year (or 100?) - what's a zero between friends?).

Ken as Dog or Dog as Ken

My father once told me you can tell a lot about a dog owner by watching their dog.

But now that SJ has successfully imagined what I would look like as a dog (she said she was defeated by trying to match a dog to me and instead just imagined me as a dog), I can take my father's wisdom to a whole new level:

photo cred goes to Isabelle!


This little clay sculpture has already claimed a spot in my heart 
(or am I in the heart of this dog?)
