DEAR READER,

Leap years screw with my fragile, unscientific brain the same way that daylight saving makes my bones ache. Where does that extra hour/day come from? It kind of puts into perspective the fact that our whole system of carefully dividing time into tiny increments is totally arbitrary, which makes me want to show up to work any time I damn well please. Then again, we at the Dig do that anyway. [Hey!—Ed.]

But that hasn't stopped us from popping out yet another issue. So this week, we bring you a cheat sheet to wine on the cheap, an interview with notoriously filthy comedian Louis CK and the anti-piracy struggle of one music critic (not to mention the entire recording industry).

This issue is also somewhat self-referential, with an article about Spare Change and Whats Up (our independent media brethren) and an interview with Nicholas Gurewitch, author of our dear and soon to be departed comic strip, Perry Bible Fellowship. Woah ... it's metaDig. And you get an extra day to enjoy it ... or, no. Not really.
