Here goes one of those blog posts that start out with only a shred of an idea, so in the writing, maybe something emerges. Anyhow, for the Ontario Extend 9x9x25 its really writing about what you are thinking about, right? I’m thinking about a project I am working on with Gardner Campbell. Yes, that Gardner […]
I tried really hard, really hard, to turn make cleaver use of Maslow’s Hammer as this post’s metaphoric title “if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail” And if you read this blog you will see my endless focus and writing about SPLOTs. No they are not the answer to anything […]
And it’s all worth it. Especially as Antonio Vantaggiato stay in touch through the interwebs.

Pretend you don’t know me. To save you some manual effort you surely won’t mind giving me permission to not only add things to your calendar, but also, you are okay with me sharing your calendar or even deleting it.
