* The New York Times Magazine put together a guide to relief-pitch facial hair. Do you prefer the King Tut or the Wyatt Earp? (NYTimes)

* Any Perfect Strangers fans out there in need of a mood boost? This videogame is a great reminder that nothing's gonna stop you now. (NothingsGonnaStopMeNow)
* "When I was writing the Cider House Rules, I realized, 'You seem to work best with a last sentence.' And once I know, like a piece of music, what it sounds like at the end where I'm going, I make a kind of roadmap in reverse back to where the story should begin.
