Congrats to my best bud Klippy, who had his first piece published in the Sunday Reader of the Edmonton Journal. Read it here.

My latest Tribune column:
On the 2nd edition of the New Oxford American Dictionary, which can be held in the palm of your hand.

From now on, I'll be posting links to my columns at Inflections, a new weblog I'm starting with my idol, Jim Vanden Bosch, and other profs of mine at Calvin.

I'm also pleased to introduce the new Worship Weblog for the Calvin Institute of Christian Worship, where I work. The blog of my English 101 class is winding down, but there's a lot there to catch up on (hmm, that last clause wouldn't cut it in my class).

And as always, you can kill a lunch break with my post to end all posts, or with these links I'm yanking from the left navbar:
