Speaking of physics
It struck me this morning that Bob Saget might be an oxymoron. Can something bob and sag at the same time? A field trip to the beach might be in order. Technically, I suspect that while something is bobbing it is sagging half the time, during the phase of the cycle that brings more than half of it below the center line. I guess that makes Bob Saget a semi-oxymoron. (Please note that none of this is meant to imply anything negative about the man himself. I like his work. This is just a case study in fluid linguistics.)
In other news, I just went over Dead Guy Spy, book two of Nathan Abercrombie, Accidental Zombie, for the penultimate time. This pass involved the comments from the copy editor. Next time I see the book, it will be in first-pass galleys. The scary thing about first-pass galleys is that the ARC is usually made from them. So if you see a whopper of a mistake in galleys, you know it's going to be enjoyed by lots of folks.
