THOSE PRACTICAL GERMANS
always making up long words that precisely describe a given phenomenon. Here's a great example:
"handschuhschneeballwerfer" I need to figure out how to work that word into one of my next lectures!
"There are a few more interesting German words such as 'handschuhschneeballwerfer', which means somebody, who wears gloves to throw snow balls. It is used in general for all cowards."

CARNIVAL OF ASIAN HISTORY BLOGGING
sounds like a good idea to me. Kudos for Jonathan Dresner for starting it up. For more info and to make submissions, see here. The entrance requirements are quite generous:
You do not have to be Asian, an historian, or a carny (you do have to be a blogger, at least once); all you have to do is blog about Asian history.
