This week…seriously, guys, we should have known.   If we sound like we’re recording in a cavern, it’s because I forgot to check what mic we were recording with, and it was recorded with my laptop’s internal mic.  Dammit.

This week…seriously, guys, we should have known.   If we sound like we’re recording in a cavern, it’s because I forgot to check what mic we were recording with, and it was recorded with my laptop’s internal mic.  Dammit.


Anyway, this week Maggie’s finishing projects and giving them away, which we probably should have expected, and she’s started another pattern for herself this time.  Karen’s working feverishly on the super secret project (spoiler alert: the knitting gods were not helpful in this regard) and has been changing her mind on one project.  Like this is a surprise.


Naturally there’s lots of Comic-Con news about Firefly (EEE TELEVISED SPECIAL!), a new Sandman project from Neil Gaiman, and of course, another epic Twilight panel lineup.  Also, Adam Savage of Mythbusters has let another epic costume for the con.  The awesome even started pre-con with an amazingly geeky relay race ending in San Diego!


Outside the con, the US military is taking some inspiration from a certain Princess Warrior, while the UK military is releasing even more documents about their evaluation of alien threats.  Of course they don’t monitor alien sightings any more…or DO THEY?  And if the zombies arrive before the aliens, we have a list of places where you  might want to hole up.


And while you’ve barricaded yourself inside, we have some adorable amigurumi you can do to pass the time.
