Monday Links and News – 08.20.2012

by Daniel J. Hogan

My new blog, with a humor focus, is on clattertron.com. This blog, on danieljhogan.com, will be used for weekly links, news, general updates, and jokes about the metric system.

Links! Because everyone loves having everything I do in one handy place. I like being handy. As Red Green always says, “If the women don’t find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.” Good advice, that.

Yes, Ginger and the Geek has come to an end.

At least for now. I will confess, I feel as if a great weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I loved the show, but doing it weekly was a lot of work, and Kat and I felt like we were just spinning our wheels (not really growing). What is growing, is Kat’s blog traffic, to the point where I encouraged her to go off on her own. Kat’s new website (<shameless plug>which I helped set up</shameless plug>) is gingeradorned.com. Not having to worry about producing a show, or writing additional blog posts I wasn’t happy with, is a huge relief.

Speaking of relief, The Magic of Eyri will be ending soon, as I have started editing the final episode. I’m going from two podcasts to zero in the span of a month. Ye gods!

Helping to fill the void will be a new column I am starting with The Idler, called In the Dark (Without the Guilt). It begins next month. I will write about films I consider (not so) guilty pleasures (ex: Hudson Hawk, Cabin Boy, and so on). I have been MIA on The Idler for a few months now, since In the Queue was mothballed and our latest Gamers’ Club finished, so I am eager for a return.

And Lord knows, I can talk about Hudson Hawk or Cabin Boy at length.
