A literary map of the UK. [Reddit]
Had a conversation earlier about how my moods and ambitions act like a chameleon to my environment –
For example, during the weeks I travel to New York City I feel a palpable change in what I aspire to be professionally. Looking out a 25th floor window onto the pomp and energy of Times square and all the NYC represents makes me want two things:
1. Be a Broadway star a la the new NBC show “Smash”
2. Money/Power - Both interchangeable and deeply intertwined
This is all deeply worrisome. This current case is deep in the land of retail and fashion and all things glamorous (the industry at least, my work is mired in excel data and quite a bit farther from glamor).

Watch on repeat ad infinitum.
We need education reform in a major way, especially for STEM disciplines! -cchThis map suggests that unless you live in California, a smattering of states out East, or a small handfull of other states sprinkled across the country, you’re looking at a very grave problem when it comes to scientific illiteracy in your community’s youth (and, presumably, its population in general). Come to think of it, this map should really concern you, no matter where you live.
An 8 hour conference call and an infinite number of bubble charts later…
its the weekend! Going to a Celtics game tonight, and watching the superbowl on Sunday. Here goes my effort in actually caring about Boston sports (for once I live in a city where the teams are not miserable).
