Stockholm

Apparently Slate did doing a weeklong series on Scandanavian architecture last year. The Stockholm part is very interesting to me. Via an old post by Monasette.

Fun

Let's revive this little game. (via more than a dozen people, but I've traced it back to the source.)

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

From "Alastor" by Jack Vance (an omnibus volume, quote is from "Trullion: Alasor 2262"):

Social evils are unknown; poverty is no more than a curious word.
