One Man’s Weekly Links – September 21, 2007

John P.

September 21, 2007 By John P.

America by the NumbersI come across so many good articles online, but simply don’t have the time to share them all as regular posts. So I’m trying an experiment here.

I’m going to post a few links at the end of the week to other interesting articles. I may make it a fairly regular thing, but the jury is out at the moment. Feel free to give me feedback as to whether you’d like me to continue, or not bother.

  • Dark Passage: Pirates of the Strait of Malacca
  • This is Where We Live: A look at America by the numbers.
  • Papers, Please! Arrested at Circuit City
  • Bloggers Bring in the Big Bucks
  • Iowa court rules same-sex couples can marry
  • Ambient: Clean the beach
  • State Senator Ernie Chambers Sues God

    Thank you for any other informative site. The place else may I get that type of info written in such an ideal approach? I have a challenge that I am simply now running on, and I’ve been at the glance out for such information.

    Papers, Please! Arrested at Circuit City

    Great story, I will keep reading up on that to see what the final outcome will be.

    In the Philippines it is normal in supermarkets and stuff that they check everything in your cart vs the receipt when you leave. But when you shop like me once a month and push out 3-4 carts, then that process takes time.

    I hate being treated like a criminal just because I choose to spend my money in their store and it frustrates me enormously…

    Maybe another post on Stuff that Piss me Off is in order :-)

    Kim:)

    John, I was just thinking of something similar, something along the lines of a “link dump” :) I like the idea a lot. I still like to break out some blogging thoughts, but on those busy weeks, it’s a good way to remind folks that the blog is still alive!

    BTW, love the email updates.. I normally check in during the morning, but when it’s in the email, it makes things much easier..

    I found the US population map quite interesting. It almost appears as if there is a vertical line that says if you live west of here you need to be in a big city which may be related to agriculture conditions. It also made me look into the US population density which turns out to be about 80 per square mile but many of us live in areas where it’s over 4900 per square mile like my little suburban city. We’re not over populated, we’re just not spread out enough.

    I like the idea – just reading the headlines, they look like things I’d be interested in reading. And that map – wow, do I feel dumb – I had no idea the population un-density was so much in the midwest. (Terrible grammar there, sorry – I must need more coffee!) But I found that very interesting.

    So as just a once a week thing, or a once in a while thing – I think this is a good idea.
