Thanks to everyone who applied for our summer internship. We have a lot of reading to do. (I think we doubled our candidate pool from last summer. We need an intern just to help sort through these applications.) We’ll be notifying everybody either way the first week in May.

Another thanks to everyone who came out to see the Birmingham gang in our tent at the Magic City Arts Connection. Nobody has sent me any photo evidence, but I’m told it was great fun. If we ever take this show on the road, we’ll let you know.

  1. Congrats on the Wall Street Journal link! Go, mental_floss and staff, go.

    On a side note, for some reason this JUST occurred to me as I was typing but I would be very interested in a set of articles about the National Treasure movies discussing the facts and trivia and stuff and if they were real or not.

  2. Nice front page article on the Journal’s website :-)

  3. In the only paper worth a damn these days. Well done.

  4. congrats!
