Week 38 of mental_floss blogs

|

This week my old drunk emailing post was linked in a sidebar of another mental_floss article which was featured on CNN. The upshot? My post went to 100 comments, many of which are pretty rich. Anyway, a pretty big week with that and the Friday post on Halloween giveaways.

If you haven't seen The Secret Life of Machines (Friday's post below), pick a random episode and give it five minutes. I love love love it.

I was sick this week and didn't get all of these done during the previous weekend -- so the last few should be filtered through my DayQuil-induced haze.

Contacting Chris Higgins



I'm a writer based in Portland, Oregon. I mostly write for Mental Floss magazine (and their website), though I recently had a story on This American Life, and had a cover story last year in The Portland Mercury.

You can follow me on Twitter for occasional jokes, or find me on Facebook for updates on writing and utterly shameless self-promotion.

I'm also a mobile website and smartphone app developer. I work for Cloud Four. In years past, I worked with Night & Day Studios; I helped create Peekaboo Barn, Peekaboo Wild, Big Fat Lies, Life in Short, Cocktail Compass, Nick Jr.'s A-Z With Moose and Zee, Quibble, Savage Love, and a bunch of other apps.
