Human Cannonball
I suppose this is only tangentially about maps... but here goes.
I started the evening last night at Riverscape, Dayton's excellent downtown outdoor music venue. Enjoyed listening to a local band, Human Cannonball. Not only did I enjoy the music, but two other geeky things caught my eye... A map t-shirt:
I'm not sure what the shirt is saying... First Ohio, then the world? Also during the show, this guy played his homemade Theremin!
To give this band an additional plug, here is a video from The Dayton Informer with an excerpt from the show...
... and a classic duck joke. I'm going to be sorry to see this summer end.

Darn. I wish I'd come down in spite of the heat. I always hate the end of summer.
And why has there been no mention of Ken Jennings' book "Maphead: Charting the Wide, Weird World of Geography Wopnks" on this blog? After all, it's pretty much a book *about* _us_! (Or is it because Ken (as far as I know) has made no mention of us, we're making no mention of him?)
Well, you can't have not noticed that my posting here in general has been pretty sparse... But I had the book on pre-order. Amazon told me yesterday that it had shipped... so, you can be sure I'll be gushing here very soon...
Well, I do not know what to think, to admire you or ... I am from Barcelona (from the other world) thought you would find ideas for my blog. Ideas, ideas I have found many ... Now seriously: congratulations.
