"A man who has himself no form will despise any grace of speech as bribery and corruption, any elegance in social intercourse as hypocrisy, any delicacy or distinction of bearing as exaggeration and affectation. He cannot forgive the darling of the Graces for brightening every circle by his company, for swaying all minds to his purpose in the world of affairs, for perhaps, through his writings, leaving the impress of his mind upon the whole century- while he, poor victim of sheer application, can with all his knowledge command no interest, nor move so much as a stone from its place."
Friedrich Schiller, Letters on the Aesthetic Education of Man
And I want to sing in a punk band that only does Paul Simon covers...
Better blogs than mine include:

Prof. Diana Blaine (see above)
Pharyngula (really good science blog)
Jay Barnes (funny!)
