The Joey Zone is happy: he got name-checked in Elena's Goth Scout strip on Sunday!
Less good: lack of plowing on campus (and Albany streets) meant I could not find a place to park today, so I finally gave up and came home to work. Good thing I can do almost all my work from home -- except for the office hours. Sorry, students! At least I don't have any meetings scheduled today. Besides, I would have had to leave early for my doctor's appointment anyway. Perhaps tomorrow I need to bring the snow shovel and dig out a parking space for myself. Let's hope the melting starts soon!

I wsih I could have heard you speak about Tove Jansson a while back, and now on Finnish magic! I find it most intriguing that these are subjects of such scholarly interest. Do you ever post your papers online for the rest of us to see?
Hi Marja-Leena--
Actually the Tove Jansson conference is this weekend. I'm so excited! Many of the papers will be published in a volume forthcoming later this year (I believe). As soon as I have details, I will post here.
In general, if I plan to use something as a publication, that precludes putting more than a sample on-line. However, I am more than willing to send copies of the papers to interested individuals.
I should warn you, though, that with all the images, the Tove Jansson paper is about 10M! I'm making final revisions to the essay this week.
I wish I could be at that conference with you.
I would also like the read the paper on Finnish magic!
It would be very inspirational....
