I downloaded Flight Control today for my iphone. I’ve quickly grown fond of this game, but every time I cause two aircraft to collide I feel like I’ve let America down.

Learning Survival the Immigrant Way
I was in the third grade when the Whittier Earthquake struck in 1987. As a precaution and to teach us about preparedness, my teacher had each student fill a large ziplock bag with supplies that would sustain us in the event of a major disaster. We were supposed to procure items like matches, a collapsable cup, batteries, a flashlight and a first aid kit. Thanks to my parents, my ziplock bag consisted of several packages of Saltine crackers and a 6 pack of orange flavored Hi-C juice boxes. The juice kept me from zipping the bag shut, so I had to use tape to keep the crackers from falling out of the opening.

Freak Angels is a free, mostly weekly, ongoing comic written by Warren Ellis and illustrated by Paul Duffield. It’s about 12 children born 23 years ago at exactly the same moment. With the world ending 6 years ago, the story tells what happens next. Warren Ellis is one of my favorite writers. I managed to read through 50+ episodes in a couple of hours yesterday.
