But all I'm seeing is red and I can't help but be mad at it

Rabbit, rabbit! It is snowing steadily into the streetlight. I believe it is expected to go on snowing for some time. I have a cold and have therefore had the kind of day where I spent the night awake and the morning working through bright and greying light and finally passed out in the late afternoon. This series of articles on the Siege of Gondor from a perspective of military history, logistics, and tactics significantly improved the earlier portion of my day. I am also thinking about how I disagree with the assertion at the end of this review about the paucity of great visual art of war.

Not done yet, but:

The piece on Oaths did not contain much fact I didn't already know, but said it very well.

I'm partway through the series on Sparta. This *does* contain a lot I didn't know, and is written with admirable intensity and passion. I knew Sparta was not all it is (often) cracked up to be, but I had NO IDEA how comprehensively awful it was.
