Latest Entry from 27-August:
“Somewhere in the grueling decade of medical school, future doctors
file into a cold room to slice open cadavers. The dissections
supposedly illuminate the fleshy interworkings of the human body,
but they also serve as a test of nerves and fodder for the next
generation of horror movie schlock. I too have arrived post-mortem
with scalpel in hand, aimed not at a corpse but at snazzy slidedeck.
I offer the final chapter in my unprecedented triumvirate
of posts
about Blog Indiana 2010: an analysis of Jeremy Dearringer’s
presentation on Search Engine Reputation Management.”
