Sunday Night Gallimaufry

You know the drill, this is the miscellaneous tab closing ceremony. Since I’m tired of politics today, there will be none in this list. I have had several discussions about this recent article on a particular form of elective surgery. All that I can conclude from these discussions is that I have different aesthetic than many of the people I’ve… Read more →

Early Saturday Morning Gallimaufry

And, time to close a few more tabs… It’s lovely that the Internet can bring me an interactive beer and food matching guide.

Details to follow when things return to normal, probably along with some commentary on a couple of tourist… Read more →

A Man Turns 34

Note: I will deny the entire contents of this post if my daughter ever finds it later in her life and confronts me with it. I expect you all to back me up in those denials. So, how did I welcome in 34th birthday? Recall that I was spending it in Australia. Before I get into the details, I want… Read more →
