Mental Floss magazine, which I have read since the first issue, just posted this interview from last week about Prisoner of Trebekistan.  This is a real kick as far as I’m concerned.

(I should clarify that when I went all Mr. Miyagi in the interview — that stuff about the glass of water in the ocean — I meant fresh water, as when you’re dying of thirst and surrounded by salt water.  This may have been unclear.  As the gospel of Spinal Tap teaches, there is a fine line between stupid and clever.)

Also, the Entertainment Weekly review of Trebekistan
went online a while back, and there’s good news: next week they’re
issuing a correction about that accidental implication that I make serious
income from underground back-alley trivia competitions.  (How I wish this were true!)  And they’ve been super-nice about it.  So good for them.

Tuesday: The Bob & Tom
show.  Neat!  I’m doing scads of radio, but I haven’t said much here
because (a) lots of appearances are local only, (b) many shows are
unreliable about schedules, and (c) I’ve done enough radio that frankly
there aren’t many people I’m excited to talk with.  But these guys do a
great job, and I actively tune in when I’m in Ohio.  So this should be
big fun.

More as things start lining up in the coming weeks.
