Busy, busy day, so not much time to update. And right before I'm about to leave town for a few days, too. Sorry about that.

A couple quick links, then off to pack:

• Washington D.C. seems to be inviting in Big Brother
  
• I saw a lot of barges on the Mississippi River growing up, but I never saw any of them do this
  
• As promised, Extreme Ironing
  
• Excellent blogging by a guy working at the Winter Olympics
  
• Terrific Google search that hit my page today. Wish I could have helped you, friend.
