Adieu, PanImp. Allo, Puppetism. Yes, that is correct. The puppets have their own domain and their own blog. No reason to come back here anymore. |

Robert Waugh writes, draws, contemplates and generally does nothing of interest. The Panoramic Imprint is that man's website. Learn more.

Eerie. Typed in my address, there’s my apartment and my truck sitting next to it. Took a virtual drive down the road to my mother’s office. Who needs to go outside?
One of the best author sites for a book. Rowan Somerville introduces his first book with wit and a slow descent into chaos. I expect the story (about a journalist in Cairo in search of a story) follows the same pattern.
A large collection of recorded poetry. The purveyors of Fishouse send recording devices to modern authors. Very trusting.
Wikipedia article about the French animated film based on Iranian expat, Marjane Satrapi’s life, as told in her acclaimed graphic novels. Now in limited US theaters and soon to be dubbed in English. This will be one of my favorite movies of 2008.
Three authors blogging on the subject of Japan. The words witty repartee come to mind. Many interesting facets of Japanese culture are offered for oggling over.
After the fall of Man in Christian mythology. Time after Eve and Adam ate the forbidden fruit. In some ways this is synonymous with postprandial — after a meal — except it refers to a specific meal.
n. A hill off by itself without any hill-friends nearby. Also called an inselberg by the inselbergians. Don’t get them together with any monadnockers. Inselberg! Monadnock! Inselberg! MONADNOCK!
n. There’s a good Scrabble word, dirndls. There’s a vowel in there somewhere. Alpine peasant costume, as worn by the fictional orphan Heidi. With its tight bodice and low-cut neck line, the dirndl is also popular in men’s libidinous fantasies.
n. That wingéd staff encircled by a braid of two snakes has a name. The caduceus came to be associated with the medical profession because it looks like the Rod of Asclepius (snake on a stick), only gnarlier and tricked out with wings.
adj. Of a moon or planet, means somewhere between half and completely illuminated. Convex, bulging, humped, like and expectant mother’s belly… or my own for that matter. I have a gibbous gut.
660 curries? Come on Iyer, you couldn’t find six more?
Animals and the Nature of Feeling Good. I guess the subtitle says it all. Scientist writes about pleasure in the animal kingdom. Oh, and the cover has two cute pigs snuggling snouts. Cute pigs can sell science, ethics and all that.
When I went vegan, what hurt most was giving up on my cookies, an art I had just started to master. Baking in general is one of those areas that vegans fear to tread. But maybe this book can help me expand my repertoire.
The hosts of The Post Punk Kitchen and authors of two other great vegan cookbooks offer another sure-to-be-great cookery. Coming out in hardback October 28th.
Part one of a sci-fi trilogy. One of those in a world where… books. Everyone gets cosmetic surgery on their 16th birthday and moves from Uglyville to New Pretty Town. One girl must betray her friend if she ever wants to get pretty.
