RIP Harvey Korman

I totally missed his passing. Another comic genius gone. I spent many childhood evenings watching the Carol Burnett show, not to mention his wonderful characters on everything from voice acting on animation to his work on Mel Brooks' films. His IMDB page is huge and impressive.

I love that BoingBoing gave primary coverage to his roles in the Star Wars holiday special.

Very Bad Deaths by Spider Robinson

Very good, somewhat disturbing.

Sony Ebook Reader, first impressions

I've now read a few short stories plus HP&t Deathly Hallows, and Spider Robinson's _Very Bad Deaths_ on the Sony reader.
