Springtime is HERE. Today, at least, and at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.
The Oscars were on recently. If you missed them, a nice substitute is here at McSweeney’s Meta Awards.
In case you DID miss them, get hip to the first lady of film, Kathryn Bigelow.
Maybe you are a sourpuss and already miss winter, like this lynx [...]

LYNX (!) winter is never over
LYNX (!) books. movies. girls.
And to think I defended American Apparel for “at least they don’t airbrush.” (Semi-NSFW.)
Do I recognize you from… that Palmolive commercial?
Best of the best: Writing Advice.
And then: one girl did it. One Girl, One Novel.
New York, I Love You is on Netflix Instant now. It is the worst. Let me prevent you from making that [...]
LYNX (!) all about me
This week I drop all pretense of being this bearded cat and reveal my true identity!
Or at least some scraps of it, such as:
I am from the greatest city on earth and I have the music video to prove it.
It is my dream (nightmare!) to design a fashion show such as this.
LYNX (!) what’s up is down
This week, on the INTERNET. The distinguished cat serves a glass of water, half full and half empty.
canadian-lynxSnow may save us all: none of us would dare put a slushy boot on a subway seat.
So that’s the good news, and the bad news!
LYNX (!) short and sweet
This week on LYNX, I bring you:
Some interesting local coverage (via EV Grieve, the best place for local news, sorry NY1.)
Something worth clicking (thanks J).
Something so charming it can even make a New Yorker stop being cynical for a hot minute. (via MUG – a good resource for said cynical New Yorker)
LYNX (!) the wide, beautiful world
It’s an extra-good week in Lynx-Land, and I don’t mean Romania though the noble Lynx is the national animal. “Lynx” is also the name for the Central Florida Regional Transportation Authority but what I’m talking about today is the Internet.
A bitch(y/ing) advice column.
A new (old) cooking show.
Speaking of food: eating (well) on $7 a [...]
LYNX (!) get ‘em girl
If this cat could find shoes in his size, he’d order these.
LYNX (!) believe it or not
Good afternoon, web surfers.
First things first: a gaga art project, re: last week’s Freakbook. Believe what you see.
Today’s horoscope: a little late in the day, so you doubters can see if it seems true. Still feeling doubtful? Believe this: hire a bear to help you maintain your New Year’s resolutions.
I have trouble believing that anyone [...]
LYNX (!) resolutions
First, learn to apply eyeliner like this svelte cat.
Second, take my pants off more often, in different circumstances.
Keep a diary, like Dolly Parton does.
Eat more butter.
Wear more colors.
Write more poetry, good or bad.
Visit this castle. Or better yet, move into it.
LYNX (!) 2010
It’s that time of the century, folks. The aughts are over and now we’re into…the dects? Nevermind. All I know is that New Years calls for a plethora of lists, and the annual watching of the best Nora Ephron. Important essay on that film here.
And an important essay on literature, the shrinking of the mega [...]
LYNX (!) cold enough for ya?
Warm up with a local tipple.
Take a walk, in a winter wonderland. Who is Parson Brown, anyway?
Sing-a-long, even by yourself.
I’ll admit I didn’t read this whole article but the pictures of Paul Newman are hawt.
Heartwarming quote, c/o V. Nabukov.
LYNX (!) baubles + bells
Let us reward ourselves, not with eggnog or crisp gingerbread, not with baubles, bows, and mp3 players, but with the (relatively) holy joys of music and laughter.
First, music combined with another holiday-themed joy, children.
Second, music again, combined with holiday-themed weather and remarkable choreography… not to mention lyrics.
OK, I’ll throw in a bauble.
And a giggle.
Chortle, and [...]
LYNX (!) amazing
It’s the season of beauty, and miracles, folks. Talented animals, and no I don’t even mean the sly cat this particular column is named after. Dapper men who will stop at nothing on their eternal quest for style. The magic of love, especially relevant today as we sadly commemorate 1980; 29 years since John Lennon’s [...]
LYNX (!) nausea
Feeling gross, after too much pie? I know I am. This cat isn’t, obviously, first of all he is practically macrobiotic,
LYNX (!) winter inspiration
greetings from your guest lynx-er for the week
this is it, it’s turkey time, and before we go on, i will ask, do you need a new technique? do a number on your leftovers while you’re at it too.
turkey or not winter is coming and let’s all have a moment of escape before hibernation. [...]
