Today I stumbled across a large list of pangrams.
How, exactly, does one go about stumbling across a large list of pangrams? Why, by not looking where one’s going, of course. Walking while texting is a good example. Bam! Face first right into a giant page of pangrams you didn’t even know was th... Comment - Like

Dear Hollywood,
It’s okay for your characters not to know the motives behind space aliens. After all, they’re aliens. Space aliens are the ultimate boogeyman for the modern age because they probably do exist somewhere. I’m not saying they actually visit us, but they are possible, as in, not p... Comment - Like

November’s writing burn-out has faded and I’ve waded back into the shallow end of the writing pool. My first short story out of the ten I plan to write for the new book has turned into a full blown novella. That’s okay, though, because it gives me more room to explore and it gives me more word...

In OSX Lion you can highlight any word and lightly double-tap with three fingers to bring up a definition.
On my Windows machines I use a wonderful program called WordWeb to do the same thing, though a bit less robust, by highlighting a word and hitting Ctrl-Alt-W Comment - Like
