I’LL BE ON TRAVEL this evening, so blogging will be limited if it happens at all. Back later. Enjoy the many fine links on the left in my absence. And you can even amuse yourself with Eugene Volokh’s song of consolation for a poor, put-upon planet. (This musical item is heartening, too.) Find out that Get Smart predicted everything at ParaPundit. And, as always, there’s lots of interesting news here.

Also, my TechCentralStation column should be up Wednesday morning as usual. Have fun!

CORRECTION UPDATE: Best of the Web reports that the Buzzcocks story, linked above as “heartening,” isn’t true. Dang.

ANOTHER UPDATE: Weisblogg has more on the Buzzcocks, and scroll down for interesting, though largely unrelated, comments on many other entertainment-type stories.
