:primly: I would like to note for the record that I officially Do Not Approve of this. (NSFW link)

Tsk, tsk. Naughty, naughty. I might even go so far as to shake a finger (reminder: link is NSFW) in reproof.

Egads. And possibly even ‘zounds. Yes, the apostrophe is correct: it’s a contraction of “God’s wounds.”

John Crace’s mind snaps while reviewing Naomi Wolf (Theoretically NSFW).

The book in question is called Vagina – yes, of course I’m going to link to it on Amazon*; shame is is a Batman villain** – and John Crace clearly has decided that if someone is going to write a four hundred page book about her… I believe that the current term of art is ‘hoo-hah?’ …then the least he can do is to write a four hundred word review that recaps properly the transformative challenge to, and defiance of, Western patriarchy that is Naomi Wolf’s genitalia.  And, lest you think that the Guardian is merely being cruel – which it was, by publishing the article*** – read Jenny Turner’s review at the same site, which is: a, considerably longer; b, much more sympathetic to Wolf’s faction of feminism than are most of the people reading this****; and c, equally goggle-eyed astounded that Naomi Wolf wrote this thing.

All in all: that’s one sweet gig Naomi Wolf’s got there.  I’m impressed.

Two seafaring songs by my wife.

I’m not exactly sure why she was sniggering when she sent me the link to these: the “Crew of  Seven Hundred” is a war song about a captain trying to find a way to patch her ship, while “The Small Sword Song” is essentially about a job interview.

Maybe because they were both written for her 7th Sea game?

PS: Oh, yeah, I’m also supposed to mention that you may want to not click those songs at work.  I’m not sure why: it’s not like there are any dirty words in them.
