I've had these three links open in my laptop's browser for weeks now. Clearly, they long to be posted.

Romancing the Stone-Cold Killer. I realized a long time ago that the classic Ayn Rand hero has something in common with a psychopath -- "Other people do not exist for him and he does not understand why they should", etc. But I didn't know this creepy real-life story about her idealization of a specific kidnapper/murderer.

Inch by inch, Barack Obama is moving mountains. Yep. And, frankly, I like that he has a steely and pragmatic side as well as the dreamy optimistic side. One inch at a time.

Marriage as a Business Proposal: not an original idea, but a nice writeup. The key areas where he suggests partners should be evenly matched is dead-on, including the unintuitive one of grieving style. I like some of the strategies too.
