The Magellan's Log Really Short Reading
List & Brief Guide to Worldly Wisdom
Chekki Boggus works hard at naming a mere 10 books that'll change your world. For the
better.
Bush's Folie à Deux
Doc Cuddy on the dangers of the dual pathogens of power and patriotism, in the manner of George W. Bush.
Intellectual Life in America
Maurice Fitznuggly rises manlily to a potent
defense of those who sit and think in these United States.
Silver Linings for America
 Ora Shay, our favorite token Republican is back, and, ever the
positive-thinker, tries to boost the national morale
following certain recent disasters.
Tidying Up America: The Secret Republican Budget Plan
for the Next 4 Years.
Our mole in the White House has come through again. You think things have changed in the
last 4 years? You ain't seen nuthin yet, according to
Business Editor Michelle Furr.
 The
Birth
of Venus
Sylvia Sikeston really likes Sarah
Dunant's novel about Florence ca. 1500. Not least among its rich attractions are the
parallels to the United States of America ca. 2004 and its budding theocracy.
Mi Elección Es Su Elección
Thanks to decades of miseducation, we've got a dumbed-down, indifferent
electorate. What to do? Doc Cuddy has a slow-fix,
sure-fire answer.

Survival of the Niftiest
Ontology editor Astraeu Chakar makes one of his rare appearances with this tripartite bit of speculation on (his wording) the
"psychic origins of species." Go figure.
A S K E W
Warning: poetry ahead! Rean Rhyne unleashes obscurantist
lines that only the deftest Zenists will be able to decode. Avoid at your own risk.
 The
Reader's Prayer
Our book editor gets bogged down in what she persists in referring to as
upper-case Fiction, and seeks divine assistance. The cause of her problem? A 40-year-old winner of the National Book Award
that leaps into her hand off a Barnes & Noble remainder table...
Dwarfs, Giants, and the 21st Century
Jason Twinhaft speculates provocatively on how dangerous it is to predict the world of 2100.
Koi Paraga?
Anyone for the other shore? Chardo Blue Plains, our itinerent mystic who
spends most of his time wandering the Interstates, popped into the office recently with this, his latest obfuscatory contribution.
La comédie humaine, Chap. 108,732
Yes, we've been slaving over a hot Internet again to bring you 25 more images of humanity doing what it does best: being itself.
Safe for work (apart from some mild nudity). C'est à rire.
 Rule,
America!
Of course we have to keep the old NATIONAL anthem. But isn't it time we shucked our false
modesty and adopted a proper, um, more imperial
tune?
