Brotherhood 2.0: March 19th: Urban Exploration

Tobin's on the Brotherhood!

(And he has a scarf on, per usual.)

The Cool Crowd

You know, I'd be such a better writer if I could meet up with fabulous YA authors at cafes in NY and write. Er, "write."

Ooo, bask in the Mac Love.

That reminds me of getting together with friends to "study" in college.

At least I have the right computer to become a famous YA author, right?

Green vs. Green

With varied levels of success, we read John Green's Looking for Alaska last year, and I read (and loved) his most recent An Abundance of Katherines as well. He and his brother, Hank, have committed themselves to Brotherhood 2.0 a video blog (short, like two minutes each) exchange for 2007. It's very amusing. I've spent much of this morning catching up on their January correspondence.

John's "NannyNannyRichKid" song is awesome.

Hank has a Narnia map on his basement wall.

(Okay, I have one, too, but it's in a box and I had it for when I was teaching.)
Anyway, it's great; they really do look like the brothers from The Proclaimers.

And, wholly unrelated to YA or books period, Making Fiends is also funny and a welcome distraction to a cold cold day.
