iPhone. It does everything except bake cookies. And they’re probably working on that. But what practical use could I find for it? If I buy an iPhone what other object that currently occupies space in my house/pocket/purse/car/etc. can I get rid of? I get it – it does Internet phone pictures video music Can I […]
Influenza
People tell me time and time again that nausea and other forms of upset stomach are not part of influenza. What I really think they mean is that being sick-to-your-stomach is not “having the flu”. I just had two of the worst days of my life. Between the nausea and other unmentionable stomach pains, the […]
Reality TV – the new RPG?
Now I never really played role-playing games myself. Those were more the exclusive realm of boys than football was. The games themselves seem to be interesting enough. You build a character in an imaginary world where incredible things are possible. Then you devise ways to make your character interact with other players’ characters within the […]
What’s the point?
After reading this blog post about Blogging Your Passion, I realize I should probably make some statement of intent. I suppose most people keep one of these for one reason in particular. This can involve keeping family and friends up to date, connecting with your professional associates, critiquing politics and society, promoting your business, making […]
Juneteenth Day

I never really thought that I was more sensitive […]

It has come to my attention that my new template/theme/whatever-you-want-to-call-it is not compatible with Firefox. I apologize and am working on fixing it. However, I really like this template so that’s not going to change. In the meantime, please view the blog in Internet Explorer. I promise to not place any malicious code anywhere near […]
Emme Packer
Every once in a while, a new artist seeps into my consciousness little by little. Emme Packer is the latest to make her way in. Jerry introduced her to me a while ago when he listened to one of her songs on myspace. She sings sweetly and writes her own music. She plays guitar and earnestly […]
Nirvana
I mean the band Nirvana, not the Buddhist concept. I just finished watching a VH1 Classic show about the making of Nevermind. All I have to say is that I will never be able to forgive Kurt for his suicide. Never. But I can’t forgive people for anything, anyway. Kurt should never have left this […]
