Congratulations to everyone who gave National Novel Writing Month a shot this year, and especially to those who made it to 50K.

Me, I like the hat. I was just in Brisbane's best little hat store, looking at an Akubra Stylemaster, which is not dissimilar to your model there :-)
A fifty pound potato that Grushkin developed by twenty five years of selective breeding, which, if planted across the plains of central Asia, would have revolutionized the production of vodka.
