Even just writing this title I anticipate the automated spam offering links to poker web sites. Oh well. I can’t pass up a story of serendipity and ancient web technology. The first card is a tweet from Jon Becker, who for quite some time has had his online students at VCU take a spin at […]
… with all the acting pistache of maybe… Steven Seagal? Sure I can futz around cpanel and run some command line stuff (on a really good day maybe vi) but it’s far from my wheelhouse. But I can stretch. Last fall Clint Lalonde came bearing some much needed contract work for BCCampus and his new […]
Oops. Speaking of slacking on the blogging, the last post here on this year’s Networked Narratives class was the first one about this year’s class. This fourth iteration of this change it up every year course co-taught with Mia Zamora at Kean University mixed things up from previous years. More on that soon. From the […]
Hello, world. No, that’s been done before. But hello, empty WordPress editor, screen, even more sparse when the Gutenburger editor opens full screen. More white space. Forgive me blog, for it has been 11 days since my last post, and it’s been only 3 this month. Even doing my ALL CAPS tweets of impersonation has […]
Mothers’ Day when your mother has passed on… there are no flowers to send, no cards to mail, no phone calls. But that does not mean nothing to do (not like not writing too many double negatives!). The first Mothers Day after mom passed on, in my post I lifted the lyrics from the song […]
May 2 marks Dad’s birthday, if he was here I would have called him to ask how it feels to be 94. There’s a challenge in trying to imagine your parents as kids. You come into the world, and there they are, fully formed. Dad was always just Dad, but there’s the few photos I […]
In pandemic times, out of the ordinary things happen. Around the home front last week, as a birthday thing, the family indulged me in watching a few favorite movies I watched repeatedly as a kid on TV in the early 1970s. Apparently my kid days was a long time ago. My movie and music tastes […]
I can hear a dated 1960s beat from the back of my brain… something to rev up the blog again. Yet different lyrics?

The SPLOT goes on, the SPLOT goes on I keep pushing updates to the repos. La de da de de, la de da de da MOOCs was once the rage, uh huh History has turned the page, uh huh The pandemic, the current thing, uh huh Zoom classes are our newborn king, uh huh The SPLOT goes on, the SPLOT goes on I keep pushing updates to the repos.

Yes, as if there’s anything else to blog about, but here, some 5+ years after they emerged, I’m still dabbling, poking in the SPLOT zone (the site needs some updates, and […]
Over the last 8 months I’ve been tinkering on a WordPress site made for my wife Cori’s high school program. It’s a place for students most at risk of not graduating across three local schools to write, reflect, connect. It’s a web site but there’s much more to it. If you think Central Canada is […]
Okay. We have pivoted, home quarantined, stocked up pantries, filled closets with TP, stretched Wifi limits, set up workspaces in our living spaces. We’re going from reducing screentime to it being all the time. Zoom! Zoom! Zoom! go the days. Social distancing is a universal concept (well barring one orange topped refuser). Stores are doing […]
