Not sure if you have heard or not, but Renee and I are getting married this October 24th here in Raleigh. Rather than bore the four people who read this blog with never-ending updates about the wedding, I set up hughandrenee.info, which will be THE official site for all things wedding related.

Persistence Hunting – Running Down Your Prey

admin — Thu, 07 May 2009 11:57:51 +0000

In this 8 minute video, watch the Sand People of the Kalahari Desert “run down” an Antelope. It seems that chasing our prey may be the oldest method of hunting, existing long before we had more efficient weapons.

I imagine if hunting still meant chasing your prey for eight hours in the heat of the sun, we would see fewer hunters.

How To Be A Successful Evil Overlord

Peter Anspach has listed 100 keys to success to being a Successful Evil Overlord. I like #7:

When I’ve captured my adversary and he says, “Look, before you kill me, will you at least tell me what this is all about?” I’ll say, “No.” and shoot him. No, on second thought, I’ll shoot him and then say “No.” (via Kotkke)
