Pope *Hopes* for the Best, Pagan Babies Okay

It’s a bit late getting to my attention, but I was made aware recently of the Pope’s exoneration of pagan babies in limbo. The documentation on this subject is actually quite lengthy; I had to follow a couple of citations to other fascinating topics regarding in vitro fertilization and other immoral acts of life indignities,… Continue reading Pope *Hopes* for the Best, Pagan Babies Okay

Raquy Danziger Workshop

Saturday I took a workshop with Raquy Danziger of Raquy and the Cavemen. She’s touring for her latest album release, “Naked.” I’ve been looking forward to this workshop since before it was actually being offered with her busy touring schedule. Perseverance paid off and the schedule was finally updated to include Atlanta as a stop… Continue reading Raquy Danziger Workshop

Be Kind to Wild Animals

Friday night I haphazardly tossed the contents of the evening’s milk shake off the back deck down 14′ feet or so into our compost pile. Much to the utter surprise of a large-ish opossum, the milky-sweet goodness splattered loudly as it found its mark on the possum’s back. The possum made short work of shimmying… Continue reading Be Kind to Wild Animals

Friendship

Today’s fortune cookie: You will be called upon to help a friend in trouble. Answer the call. It’s particularly ironic since Amy and I were discussing in great detail the quality of friendship, and my specific attributes and contributions towards one. So now I’m just wondering which of my friends will be calling me…

The Sleepless vs. the Sleepy

I had an interesting dream last night (in retrospect) in which I awoke to find that my wife was not sleeping next to me. I got up to take my shower and such, and found her getting ready to go to work – very early. This would be unusual for her because her office doesn’t… Continue reading The Sleepless vs. the Sleepy

The Disney World Report

Disney World Vacation Photos There’s a place on this Earth where reality fails, excitement is on tap, and prices are only limited by your imagination. Walt Disney’s Disney World creation is the most spectacular piece of manufactured tourism in the world. It’s also one of the only places that truly caters to the whole family,… Continue reading The Disney World Report

Gainesville’s Finest

I don’t have particularly bad luck with police officers, but it just seems as though most of them don’t have very personable personalities. Friday night at Oodle’s in Gainesville proved otherwise. Two officers were eating at Oodles where my wife, son, and I frequent. Balthazar noticed the cars outside while we ate and was very… Continue reading Gainesville’s Finest

How To: Graffiti

Actually, I’m looking for the “how to” on graffiti. I’m having quite a time trying to get the style down. It’s difficult for me to derive a graffiti style that doesn’t just look like a cool font. I’m not sure I completely understand the difference yet, but apparently I don’t have the right mindset for… Continue reading How To: Graffiti

Oo-Lah-Lah, Spring’s Guffaw

Winter really didn’t have much of an icy grip this year. It is not unheard of to see a hearty snow in the middle of March, but I think the danger of that is over. Spring appears to be here to stay, if the Cherry trees, Flowering Pear, and Daffodils are to be believed. Per… Continue reading Oo-Lah-Lah, Spring’s Guffaw

The Right to Be Topless

Some parts of America are actually attempting to reeducate society’s morals and bring fair treatment of mammaries to all. New York, for one, has legalized boobs on public display in areas where it is similarly approved for men to go shirtless. After Janet Jackson’s recent wardrobe blunder, some (albeit minority) civil liberty groups have stressed… Continue reading The Right to Be Topless
