Everything that does not have a home, just a big old stinking pile of posts.
Abiding by the letter of open licenses mean you do not have to ask permission. But it sure is nice when someone goes beyond the letter of the license and lets you know of a use of your work. It’s an old story around here, and it’s so old I cannot find the source, but […]
per·mu·ta·tion p?rmyo?o?t?SH(?)n/ noun a way, especially one of several possible variations, in which a set or number of things can be ordered or arranged. Often I am asked if “this is the right way to do attribution” for something openly licensed. Most of the time I am tempted to reply, if you are attributing at […]
A tweet of ends #digitalstorytelling gem @cowbird to shut down: https://t.co/IRIyymTJcYThis makes me so sad. — Bryan Alexander (@BryanAlexander) February 8, 2017 The standard opening lines here would be my woeful admission of how little I had written in that special storytelling space. It would be wafted with moth-ball scented excuses. You can more or […]
Is it just me or are people in the US (and Britain, and France, and… well everywhere) just more on edge lately? Sleeping less / worrying more? I know it’s just not me. Of all the things the new administration in the US is doing (and the list grows with every whacko tweet), the idea […]

Tomorrow is February 8. With arithmetic, on February 8, if Mom […]

I have but a fuzzy idea what I mean in the title of this post; I was looking for images about polishing / waxing cars and I all I got was pictures of shiny cars until I stumbled onto this one. Lucky for me and maybe the 8 other people who use it, but in […]
Cancer took Dad in August 2001. I don’t want to do the arithmetic on how long ago that was. Yet I did. Where is that point of the trailing off of grief and the acceptance of the norm where your parent is gone? It’s not defined at all I think of him when the calendar […]
