2. Pause celebre, via Tim Bray. All about the semicolon. I read this a while ago, but today saw someone talking about it... I can't find where I read it for the life of me, but if I do, it's going here.

4. Ned Batchelder: Shining trailer:

   Did you ever see a trailer for a movie, and have a suspicion that the movie would be very different? Or worse, have you been to see the movie, and finally understood just how much they twisted the truth when making the trailer? Well, a contest for making purposefully misleading trailers produced this gem: Shining[MOV], which turns The Shining into a heartwarming movie about a boy and his dad.

   Definitely worth checking out.

5. Charles has a good Serenity review on his site:

   And that, ultimately, is what’s good about Serenity. When was the last time you read a review of a science fiction movie that talked at length about the characters?

   Indeed. And I think I agree with everything he said.
