Old post, but the best thing I've found on using em vs. px in CSS. Worth sharing just because of the photo I think.

Listening to Gladwell's Tipping Point

I am listening to Malcolm Gladwell's Tipping Point on the ride from Dallas to Gulfport, MS today. I read it a few years back but after listening to Gladwell read Outliers and enjoying it so much, wanted to try out Tipping Point via audiobook as well.

Archer on FX

Just watched a couple episodes of Archer I had on the DVR and it was pretty funny. Reminded me of Venture Brothers, but I think just because that's one of the only other adult cartoons I could compare it too. It's pretty crude at times, lots of sexual innuendo. Looks like season pass material for sure.
