Sword Swallowers Awareness Day was February 26 (in conjunction with National Swallow Disorders Month -- I had no idea, and it's nearly over!). I know I missed it, but I thought it was worth mentioning anyway. Take some time out of your day today and thank the sword-swallower in your life. Give them a hug, unless there is a sword currently in play...
This post's theme word is acicular, "needle-shaped." He swallowed three acicular swords of increasing size!

Malcolm Gladwell
I earlier expressed my displeasure at Malcolm Gladwell's writing. I'm not the only one! Someone with a bit more free time built this Malcolm Gladwell book generator (hat tip: A.). Its criticisms seemed spot-on, and its offered cover designs are accurate, too. My favorite title was "Power: How Power Powerfully Powers Power."
This post's theme word is irrefragable, "that which cannot be disputed or argued." Gladwell's theories are so preposterous as to be irrefragable by rational means.
