1. An announcement! Because Strange Horizons made its stretch goals for this year's fund drive, we are now auditioning podcast readers. We are looking especially for readers conversant in more than one language, with accents that are not General American. Previous experience as a professional reader is not required, but you do need to be able to send us clear, high-quality recordings. Please feel free to forward and repost this advertisement. We are looking for as diverse a selection of readers as we can assemble.
2. An argument! For those of us who grew up on 1776, the most disorienting thing about Captain Nice (1967) is not seeing William Daniels as a milquetoast instead of a firebrand, but seeing William Daniels with a contemporary haircut and a middle-American accent. Discuss?
3. Art! I like this photoset.
Tomorrow is my family's annual Hanukkah party, unavoidably two days after a major cooking holiday due to calendars. Sunday morning is the baby shower for my sister-in-law, which her family is hosting and I must find a gift for. Monday, things need to be done for the wedding. Next week is going to be very busy.
