There is a pretty cool article in the Boston Globe which discusses the measuring of Dante’s Hell in some of Galileo’s lectures, which overall contributed to some of the more crucial scientific theories (and general shifts in thinking) from outdated abstract concepts (based more in faith and tale) to mathematics. Such as, if Hell were as constructed as Dante describes, the earth would have collapsed in on itself.

Really fascinating.

The year has barely started, and I’m excited for several things/events already.

The obvious ones are later in the year: Halloween 2011, new seasons of True Blood/Dexter/Walking Dead. I thought they all ended with a good bit of up-in-the-air-ness, which leaves me anticipating the upcoming series.

I’m going to be attending a stoner metal festival, RoadBurn in the Netherlands in April. Sunn_O))) is playing, and there’s a Godflesh reunion. Should be brutal.

Vincent and I are planning to attend Oktoberfest 2011. Who knows how evil THAT could turn out to be?

There’s plenty of metal. We’re going to see Immortal again in February. Hopefully I won’t get blackout drunk like last time.

Gonna be a good year.

Expect super posts in 2011!

Nothing out of this world, and I’m not the only one who has it, but I had completely forgotten about it:

Having your parents force you to clean out the boxes in the basement can lead to nice surprises like this one.

I’m so glad you’re back, I’l make sure no one mishandles you again. You’z still my favorite.

There’s a Catstackers contest for photos with metal stuff on your cat. This, is the greatest contest ever.
