It’s been a busy month. I have entrenched twitter into my daily schedule and i feel that it fits well with how i want to discuss science. There are a lot of fun smart people in that community, and i enjoy hearing about their daily insights on just about everything.  It also offers the chance to repost and broadcast stories that i come across that i find interesting, much more easily than using my google reader share. The word limit helps me with my verbosity as well. It’s a great medium.

There is plenty to do this weekend and surely not enough time. The race to september and the end of summer is underway; it’s a browning banana.

I hope some of you enjoyed the blocked of streets in manhattan. i love the idea. When i was in china town earlier, it brought the already circus atmosphere of canal street to even more pitched levels. bikes, fake gucci’s and out of town accents. My partner in crime  (contentcontent) Joe and I enjoyed huevos rancheros made right with sauce so hot, it was like i was downing saki. Being drunk with all that capsasin made me lose all sense of time.

Yankees Red Sox is enjoying the cooler dryer weather. The mets are trying to find a way to make San Diego weather feel miserable.

Heading up to Boscobel to enjoy shakespeare tomorrow afternoon. I hope the weather stays decent. Picnics need meteorological cooperation. Meteors can really ruin a nice afternoon almost as bad as fire ants.

Going to enjoy reading Metzinger’s The Ego Tunnel while drinking wine like any self respecting east coast liberal.

A late summer list of books from seed magazine.

If you do want to read, don’t stay indoors.

gothamlist has a nice rundown of weekend events.

This week, I had the wonderful opportunity to listen to Nymph‘s master for their upcoming album. A sonic big bang energetic masterpiece. If there was air in outer space, and sound could occur, it would resemble a Nymph track. They need to put them on the next voyager we shoot into the cosmos.

Speaking of transcendent guitars, a bird (jim) told me  there is going to be a FREE 200 piece guitar orchestra (A Crimson Grail for 200 Electric Guitars) concert this evening, Lincoln Center’s out of doors.

Now that the summer of weddings is over, it seems like everyone wants to hang out the one weekend i wont be here. An embarrassment of riches. My friends should coordinate their free time much better. Is there an ap for that?

I don’t know if you have noticed, but more contributors have been posting their observations on all things science lately. Ezra, Beth, Jim, Eric and Lauren, say hi. More on them later.

Clouds are moving in. Chance of rain. Ahhh, summer 2009.
