If you have any free time, then language log is a great way to use it up. I particularly enjoyed Geoff Pullum's long discussion of corpus fetishism, including the Morrisseyesque comment on certain reviewers who he decides it would be unkind to name:
...the only thing a fair-minded man like me can wish upon the reviewers is that they should die in obscurity
He followed this post with an (implicit, naturally) apology for his failure to follow one of Grice's maxims of manner.
