Here we have Al Franken talking with teabaggers who turn out to be reasonable people who want to discuss something with their Senator that they don’t agree with. Below that, you will see Congressman Barney Frank being very funny and dismissive of an aggressively crazy lady. Note how appropriately they respond. Franken gives a nuanced [...]
Beowulf is off to press on the morrow! I’m doing a very limited run, Ashcan-style, so if you want to read the poem, consider the exegesis, play the game, and give me feedback, this is your chance! I’m selling it for $14+$5 S&H, or just regular $14 at Gen Con. Since the run is limited, [...]

Carrie and I got back late last night from Vienna and Prague. We exhausted ourselves but good! I’ll be posting things about it as I edit my recorded thoughts into sentences. Many of our pictures are shitty. It’s a poor craftsman who blames his tools, but I’m a poor photographer, and part of that argument [...]

Here are some things I love, in no particular order: David Bowie Nikola Tesla Illusion Late 19th – early 20th Century stage magicians and escape artists. Really twisty stories about people who get themselves in over their heads. Here are some things that I like, also in no particular order; Hugh Jackman Christian Bale Scarlett [...]
OK, I’ve mooned over my honey, and now I’m out of money. So I’m back from Block Island and back in the saddle. I’ve got a couple of graphic design jobs going on — a landscape architect who seems like a really good guy, and a woman whose company makes baby slings. The second is [...]
Sharp-eyed L-Dopan Jeff noticed that the ring in the picture below is really the One Ring. It’s true! I didn’t have any photos of our rings handy, and I liked the little joke. But now the secret’s out! So here are our actual rings. Carrie and I made these of red gold. She made hers [...]
