LYNX (!) winter is never over

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 (!) 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.

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.

LYNX (!) this week we link death
