I picked this site because they included Comeuppance Served Cold on one of their “favorite” lists, but the whole place looks pretty fun.

Nerds of a Feather reviews Premee Mohamad’s The Butcher of the Forest, a book that I am eager to read.
At Reactor, Kara Kennedy compares and contrasts the three existing film versions of Frank Herbert’s Dune. (I was thrilled to see the 2000 Syfy miniseries, which is so rarely included!)
And here, Judith Tarr discusses an “abominable snowman” film from 1977. Fun review!
Odysseus made a semi-successful lunar landing (it fell on its side). Data will be collected from it, though.
“Humans have a complicated relationship with alligators,” says Nathan Drake, an historian of the American southeast. My relationship with them isn’t complicated. I see one in the wild and I run or climb as fast as I can. It’s simple. Still, this New Orleans Alligator Museum looks interesting.
Maybe in the next couple months I’ll get the DVDs of the two “Dune” SyFy productions from 2000 and 2003. Of any Dune versions, the SyFy version has the most incredible cast, I think. I’ll never watch the latest Dune version. Not only do I not like the trailers, but I just cannot stand Timothy Chalamet, his acting, his voice….
I haven’t seen either part of the newest version. All I know about Chalamet is that he “looks” the part for me.
I remember liking the SyFy version, at least the first part, and that we mocked the hats in it. Dave called it “Hat Wars.”
