I am a co-author on a paper talking about an asteroid (99942 Apophis) that may hit us in the future.  Read the paper here.

Tom loved Watchmen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The fight scenes are what impressed me the most.  The comic did not give me a good appreciation of  the fighting skills of these superheroes.

We have snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More snow is coming!!!

One of my favorite authors (Philip José Farmer) just died.  Some of my favorite books are part of the Riverworld series.  I always wanted to be reincarnated on a planet with a winding river.

We got some snow last night.

I saw Norm MacDonald and he was hilarious.  He riffed about serial killers and why Coke is better than Pepsi. 

I enjoyed Slumdog Millionaire even though I could guess what was going to happen a lot of the time.

I understand now why some people think this NY Post cartoon is racist.

I just heard that the Adam Carolla Show has been cancelled.
