Conference Hound-Up February 20, 2012: Doctor Who vs. MacGyver
Tomorrow is Fat Tuesday so I guess that makes this Anticipation Monday.

Conference Hound-Up January 26, 2012: Paul Newman is Awesome
It’s Paul Newman’s birthday. If he were still alive, he would be 87 and making the rest of us look lazy, selfish and ugly.
