A close relative of mine has spent a lot of time on the water. He taught me a lot about the water and boats. Looking back I find it interesting, that time spent with someone who had spent so much time around boats and the water, well as much time as my cousin had. When [...]
Another cloudy day has brought me here to repent. I thought perhaps writing this article in this place, would be appropriate, especially since it is here that I have typed long and hard about the good things I think about. I am kind of proud that in close to 400 posts I have really had [...]
The morning walk to my currently favorite coffee shop was crisp and invigorating, something a walk should be; a walk but not much else. Ok, maybe a Sauvignon Blanc, but now I am digressing.

Well, I’m thinking not so much a technological achievement, more like an achievement in culinary mass production technology.
I wonder what the top ten quesadilla makers [...]
I was going to originally title this post, “Sam Harris, The Sexiest Man Alive”, but then I thought that would probably be too honest. In any case, I suspect that I’m not Sam’s type, but now I’m really getting off track of the subject of this post.
Kind of like the others but different.
I long ago [...]
