Easily voted Best Dog in The Universe, our dog Felix, now pushing 12 human years, gave us a wee scare recently. Breaking the patterns, he had not even come downstairs at dinner time. At bed time, he was laying on the floor, breathing abnormally deep, almost wheezing. He could not seem to lay his head […]
Another month notched in for not only batting 1.000 for daily photos in 2026 (after a perfect 2025) but not only that, actually getting it done and blogged on the 59th day of the year, aka February 28. More self high-fives! In the bank! There’s of course dogs, also foxes, flowers, skies, land, texture, a […]
I remain unable to do presentation slides from templates. When they nust happen, out comes the cloak of sarcasm. For her graduate seminar Cori had to lead a session on Poststructualism. As we talked, it just became ironic to think of doing a linear progress of Bullet Point Slides. We jumped to a club concept […]
I’m late to note that earlier this month, February 10 marked the 22nd year since flickr launched. You can ask your favorite chat thing “when was flickr launched” and the answer will spit out as February 10, 2004, but its just grabbing that from Wikipedia. Big trick. Doing some date calculation (sans AI), that means […]
I typo [often] therefore I am [human]1. I never learned good technique. Sorry Mavis, but back at Milford Mill High School in the late 1970s, I waved off the opportunity to take a typewriter class. I must have said something like, “in what alternative universe am I ever going to be spending time typing?” I […]
Actually I am just making the images. I am not quite getting to the No Silo stage, just trying to make a stance. Just a weak, wavering stance. But as I gaze around this old web, seeing even more adherence to putting ones words, media, messages into web silos, as aptly described in a comment […]
Another of the quarter baked drafts that have been bounding around the noggin that now has a reason to see some light. Or maybe it is an excuse to give my pal Todd Conaway a Plain Old Telephone Call so we can rehash a long going topic. As I edit this long/unfinished draft, I can […]
I’m here for the first check mark for my effort of counter Tsundoku or reducing that pile on unfinished books. This is hardly a book report or detailed analysis, really I could just say, I’m done” and move on to the next. As an eager web fan boy, I put my order in for Tim […]
Sadly link rot is a growth industry. Most every effort these days of looking things up to find references ends up with a visit to the Wayback Machine. If that is not in your web tool belt, you are missing out. In combing through my own rubble pile of posts here, I nearly always come […]
After 18 years of doing daily photos where many years they were not done daily, 2025 was a return to form with not only a self high-fiving it for going 365/365 (first time since 2018) but also 12/12 for monthly blogged recaps. The streak (as if it means anything) continues into 2026. The usual resets […]
