Big Painting Sale - Terry Windling is having a painting sale to help a relative meet medical costs. Check it, boost the signal. (Via shelly_rae.)

More on fried olives (for those who are following the saga) - garyomaha with more on the fried olives made by shelly_rae.

The milkman cometh - Back to the days of future past?

Trains And Railways Extravaganza, Part 2 - Dark Roasted Blend with some distinctly curious railroad images. A must-read for steampunks and railfans.

Time to Wake Up, Sleeper Spy - Can you ever really go home?

The Liberal Dilemma and Conservative Conflict - joshenglish takes on some cultural and political tropes. I largely agree with him.

The Poor Always Pay - An Asian bank for low-income women is out to teach Wall Street a lesson. Those conservatives who think the poor are just lazy (there are a few in my extended family with that opinion) ought to try it for a while. Not college-student poor, but true poverty.

?otD: Would you, could you on a train?
