The Washington Post kicked all kinds of ass today. [livejournal.com profile] telepresence has already pointed out the really great article in their magazine section, here, where they planted a world-class violinist playing a Stradivarius in a Metro stop and watched what happened.

Ordinarily that would be the coolest thing I've seen in the news all week, but in that same issue they printed the results of their First Annual Peeps Diorama Contest.



Honest and true, your life will be better after seeing this photo gallery: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/photo/gallery/070402/GAL-07Apr02-69859/index.html

That coat doesn't look that hard to make...depending on how it's open/closed.

Jesus Christ, that Joseph Bell article was great and harrowing. Everything about it was just so sad.

There's definitely some rockabilly in there, too, especially when he was doing that Elvis hip-swivel in a sleeveless t-shirt.

Looks like a great day - and a great peepshow. I feel obligated to mention that sometimes, peeps just like to go to the library - http://www.millikin.edu/staley/peeps/
