We'll see how long these last. Probably a few more days, then they'll go weekly, and then fade away.

The antepenultimate munchkin from the Wizard of Oz has died.

Boring day on the internets.

"There are two roads in life that you can take -- the wrong road and the right road," she said. "And remember, there really is no place like home."

The wrong road and the right road? That's the moral lesson she sees in the Wizard of Oz? Really? I don't recall that being a part of the Wizard of Oz at all.

Honestly, if I were going to talk about transportation in the Wizard of Oz, I would talk about flying houses, broomsticks, magic bubbles, and ruby slippers. There seems to be a lot of variety. Considering all the alternatives to roads, the yellow brick road is just one of many routes.

And if I were going to talk about morality in the Wizard of Oz, I would talk about the nature of the Wizard's dishonesty, or issues of manslaughter.
