Colleen McCullough has died. Here is where I admit that I have somehow never read nor seen The Thorn Birds.
Important: To Protect His Son, A Father Asks School To Bar Unvaccinated Children
The Onion: I Don’t Vaccinate My Child Because It’s My Right To Decide What Eliminated Diseases Come Roaring Back
I'm not sure I want a cookbook written by computer.
See What Your City Will Be Like in 15 Years
This author age infographic is interesting.
Hmm, the Stieg Larsson book finished by someone else is coming out in August.

Morning Coffee (6/30/14)
How is it the last day of June already??
An important read: My Wife’s Abortion v. Your Free Speech
Re-reading feminist author Marion Zimmer Bradley in the wake of sexual assault allegations
Awesome: See the Text Messages That Led to Indiana's First Gay Marriage
How a Book Becomes the Book of the Summer
Sigh: Let’s Face It, There Probably Won’t Be Any "Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" Sequels
The Limited is doing a Scandal clothing line. Yes, that apparently means that The Limited still exists.
What’s your personal pop culture hell? (I agree with several things on this list.)
This Matisse cut-outs show sounds great.

Morning Coffee (12/19/13)
Two more days of work! I am very ready for vacation.
Christmas in Washington is on tomorrow, and the most delightfully random assortment of people are involved. Hugh Jackman! The Backstreet Boys! The Obamas! Sheryl Crow! Anna Kendrick!
If Pippa Middleton is really engaged, this should be fun to watch.
The best and worst media errors and corrections in 2013
Someone else is writing a Dragon Tattoo sequel. My first reaction, of course, is to disapprove, but it's not like Larsson was known for his beautiful prose, so . . . we'll see.
Fun: OED birthday word generator
This analysis of Twitter popularity is pretty fascinating.
I actually like Love, Actually, or at least parts of it, but this takedown is hilarious.
This Dr. PetPlay app looks like SO MUCH FUN.

Morning Coffee (8/9/13)
Happy Friday!
I (uncharacteristically enough) posted two things after Morning Coffee yesterday, so if you missed them: here's why I liked Broadchurch and here's a rant about Doctor Who and the "fake geek girls" myth.
Sad news: Elizabeth Peters/Barbara Mertz/Barbara Michaels has died. I love her books.
Okay, back to Friday happy. Ooh, Mira Nair's upcoming Bengali Detective sounds fun.
Clarence House now seems to be Instagramming St. James's Palace, which is just delightfully meta.
Curiosity has been on Mars for a year and played "Happy Birthday" to itself. I can't.
Ooh, pretty university libraries.
An early short story by Stieg Larsson is being published, but they rather buried the lede here: the anthology it's in is called A Darker Shade of Sweden, just in case all the rest of those Swedish crime novels are TOO LIGHT AND HAPPY for you.
The Scholastic Book Club is back!
Monaco's having two royal weddings!
