Teeny Weenies


I laughed-out-loud listening to Baxter Black's commentary on small dogs this morning on NPR (Chihuahua owners, take note). In searching for it online, I found a wealth of downloadable goodies including the Engines of our Ingenuity archives with full-text articles. If you're not in the Houston area and don't get a daily radio dose of John Lienhard, he's definitely worth checking out. He mixes technology and the humanities in a very literary way. See, for example, Poetry and Airplanes.
