It’s a holiday weekend here so tradition dictates I be a day late with late night links, and who am I to mess with tradition like that.

It’s been a busy weekend and as I write this it’s evening, Charlie Brown is going to want to go for his pre-bed time walk soon, and I’m going to want to retire to the air conditioned bliss that is the bedroom.
