Do your pedantic duty

In light of Peter’s want of serious adherents to his call to enhanced pedantry (and pedantry has no pejorative connotations in this circle of trust, thank you Dr. Davies), you should all read and think about Mr. Horan’s wonderful tribute to the muse, published below for your reading pleasure. Remember, the real world means boring jobs, mindless tasks, unnerving stagnation, so breathe the intellectual air surrounding your long-distance colleague, Mike. (This pedantry is brought to you by the letter U, and Paul Gautier)

The Way the World Ends…

Since we have all given in to the peer pressure surrounding Bloch’s call to arms (and by arms I mean pedantry), I feel as though we should reach out to other pedants in other, more exotic places. I found these while browsing teh interwebz during this ridiculous temp job. I have also sharpened my Pandora stations to perfection, but that doesn’t concern any of you. All of them except New Criterion are book blogs, mostly interesting.
