I am up way, way too late because of television. Oh sure, I could catch this week’s White Collar and Covert Affairs on USA’s web page tomorrow, but where is the excitement in that?

Incidentally, if you’re a fan of White Collar, check out Jeff Eastin’s twitter account. He’s been great about giving fans fun details during and after episodes.

Zing-zing, link party!

Thor v. heart disease. Does what it says on the tin.

In NYC, where discrimination on the basis of gender identity is illegal, a team of researchers proves that transgender people are still being refused work.

Word has it that Fred Phelps and Westboro Baptist Church will be in California to protest San Diego Comic Con. That’s fine. God Loves Batman.

And now, I think I’ll go to bed.
