It is Friday, and not a moment too soon, because this week has been about two months long.

From Matt Staggs (happy birthday, Matt!): The Facebook fan page for Peter Straub's new book, A Dark Matter, is asking what is weird and spooky about your town. (More on A Dark Matter later!)

From Nicole: David Bowie talks about what's on his iPod.Unsurprisingly, it's very eclectic.

From Cassandra: eight ancient drinks! Try them all!

From Zazoo: an amusement park dedicated to ABBA is opening in London. Wow.

From Julie: "Dinosaur had ginger feathers." Bunny will be thrilled!

Holly sent me a link to a different entry from Chris Illuminati, but then I found a more recent one about libraries and librarians. Like most discussions about libraries and librarians, it quickly becomes a discussion (in the comments) about hot librarians. Ha.

Have a safe and spiffy weekend, everyone. See you Monday.
