READIN started out as a place for me to keep track of what I am reading, and to learn (slowly, slowly) how to design a web site.

There has been some mission drift here and there, but in general that's still what it is. Some of the main things I write about here are reading books, listening to (and playing) music, and watching the movies. Also I write about the work I do with my hands and with my head; and of course about bringing up Sylvia.

The site is a bit of a work in progress. New features will come on-line now and then; and you will occasionally get error messages in place of the blog, for the forseeable future. Cut me some slack, I'm just doing it for fun! And if you see an error message you think I should know about, please drop me a line. READIN source code is PHP and CSS, and available on request, in case you want to see how it works.

See my reading list for what I'm interested in this year.

READIN has been visited approximately 236,737 times since October, 2007.

🦋 Forgive them LORD for they know not what they... ribbet?

Trouble in Rome for artistic freedom; but mainly just hilarious.

Martin Kippenberger's sculpture "First the Feet" has been singled out for criticism by the Vatican. What a lovely image! Pure luck that on the way home after I saw this article this afternoon, "Globe of Frogs" came on the stereo.

(There's got to be some clever way to tie this in to the wave of extinctions of frog species, but I am not up to it, I fear. Also: The Frog Prince → The Frog Messiah.)

➪	Yesterday, Bryan Waterman marked the anniversary of the Women's Strike for Equality (and of the 19th Amendment); today, he follows up with a description of the scene there and a lovely poem.
➪	Froz Gobo has pix of some sheep from the future. (They live at the Museum fÃ¼r Kommunikation Frankfurt -- where there is an interactive tour -- and owe their existence to Jean Luc Cornec.)
