    What you should know about Zylotrim

    And from the dark secluded valleys

    I heard the ancient songs of sadness

    But every step I thought of you

    Every footstep only you

    And every star a grain of sand

    The leavings of a dried up ocean

    Tell me, how much longer?

    How much longer?

    - Sting, "Mad About You"

    The world is full of paper,

    Write to me.

    - Shahid Agha Ali, poem

    Hot shots: A funny blog, some serial killers and more

    Some hot shots:

    - Asheville gets noticed again by ABC's Good Morning America. It's a never-ending love story.

    http://ifthataintcountryillkissyour.blogspot.com/ is a funny blog. Thanks to the Blog Log for pointing it out.

    - This year marks the 30th anniversary of a rampage by a team of two seriously effed-up California serial killers, Bittaker and Norris. Starting in the summer of 1979, these guys cruised beach towns, picked up teenaged girls and tortured, raped and slaughtered them in the back of a van. I picked up a reference to them in a great summer thriller I'm reading called The Scarecrow.

     - Via the all-seeing BooneWeb.com, there's a new wind turbine on the campus of Appalachian State University, according to High Country Press: "Installation of a 100-kilowatt, community-scale wind turbine on the Appalachian State University campus has been completed and the turbine will soon begin generating electricity that will be fed into the system operated by New River Light and Power." 

    - There's myweaverville.com and weaverville.com. Which is better? myweaverville.com, hands down.
