New York Times articles by John Hodgman

It turns out that Hodgman has written many articles for the New York Times. (Before you get too excited, be aware that some are not terribly Hodgmanic, at least not in writing style.) After learning that the Times is putting up a paywall, I hurriedly tracked down all his past articles:

New York Times Magazine articles:

Ron Moore's Deep Space Journey - on Battlestar Galactica, primarily the new version of the TV show - by John Hodgman

• Bonus follow-up blog post on Dr. Cocktail:
  

  “Finally,” Haigh continued, “Hodgman decides he wants to write a nice article for the New York Times Magazine about—me! He came out to Burbank, I had him over to the house, plied him with liquor and so forth. The interview took three days. And at some point I tell him, ‘I’m getting a book published,’ which he knew because, unbeknownst to me, he’s the one who had recommended me to the publishers! John Hodgman was the real impetus for getting me published, really published. The book had been percolating for about ten years before that, but Hodgman was instrumental, just instrumental.”

• Also, here is the newly revised and not out-of-print version of Doc Cocktail's book: Vintage Spirits and Forgotten Cocktails: From the Alamagoozlum to the Zombie 100 Rediscovered Recipes and the Stories Behind Them

Comics Chronicles

Comics Chronicle

"Do you wanna see a great new comic strip?" Charlie Brown asks Patty, running up with a distinctively oblong sheet of drawing paper. "It's about these two guys in an office, see?" he explains. "One guy offers the other guy this piece of English toffee, see? Then this other guy says, 'Thank you very much. I'll eat this during toffee-break!' Get it?"

But Patty just stares, her mouth one of those Charles Schulzian unadorned lines, the shortest distance between befuddlement and contempt. Charlie Brown walks away, the comic strip over his shoulder. "There's nothing worse than being 50 years ahead of your time," he says. That was in 1957, and even then comic strips got no respect.

Also Hodgman gives a good review of the massive The Complete Calvin & Hobbes set.
