29/08/2008 Duration: 59minYou'll hear me nearly not at all for the next few. Between the UofA starting (oooooh Rhetoric!) and my son's surgery, I'm tapped out. However, my stupendously cool from the cruise selflessly volunteered herself (and possibly ) to speak for me. This, I thought to myself, is way, way cool. Brief updates: visit , gear yourself up to read chapters of The Scarlet Letter. I'll be announcing a "go" time, when I'll post a thread to Ravelry and ya'll can pick chapters. I. Am. So. Excited. Huge thanks to listeners Sonserae (who is beyond generous and shares my geek-love of all things animated), Jenny of (who is simply the best for fearlessly entering the realm of teaching knitting) and listener Karen for the awesome allergy-and-yogurt article (I'll find it and post it...soon). The short version: eat probiotics if you have allergies. And o blast—some fabulous persons (claim it in the comments!) sent in this new-to-me and kewl Take a look!
