You can subscribe to my blog posts (which includes a daily digest of my LifeStream) via RSS 2.0, RSS .92, Atom 0.3, or Google Reader.

I have had a blog in some form since 2003, so just for fun, you could jump to a random post.

Search my posts all the way back to April 2003

The search is a little quirky, so being creative helps.
For example, a search for slumber party night will find ANY ONE of the words, while "slumber party night" (in quotes) will only find the exact phrase and I don't always use the complete phrase and sometimes I abbreviate it to SPN.
Therefore, a search for slumber spn with no quotes should find every post that mentions our little ritual.

  • the day my relationship with Terra changed

    It’s fun and even useful to have a personal site that archives all my social media updates – Twitter, Flickr, Facebook and such – and then is searchable so I can go back and see things in the past.

    Yesterday, I came across something interesting.

    See, Terra and I were friends for a long time before we became . . . → Read More: the day my relationship with Terra changed

  • Oaty Veggie Meatloaf – a recipe to perfect

    So, I start with 2 or 3 pounds of whatever ground meat…
    Then I add lots of oats and finely diced (we’re talking relish) onions and peppers until it looks right – But it’s ALOT – maybe a fourth of the total mixture and I always wish I’d added more. I don’t ever measure so I’m . . . → Read More: Oaty Veggie Meatloaf – a recipe to perfect

  • A quick rant on why I am so against a Blade Runner franchise

    This is a comment I posted on Facebook that I’ll lazily paste here, rather than write an expansion.
    I began by posting this to Twitter: “Building a franchise around Blade Runner is like building an amusement park around The Smithsonian.”

    And then, here is what I followed up with on Facebook…

    It’s what I’ve seen happen to Alien.
