It’s a challenge trying to post when fatigue wants you to sleep…

I went out to get some groceries today, thanks to help from a friend. Spending most of my time indoors has left me with a bit of cabin fever.

I also worked on the Mind Map for another new project. With my latest Apacalypse zine [...]

Sorry it’s been 5 days since my last update here… my current relapse is making it harder to type – although I seem pretty fast hen-pecking with my left-hand alone. :]

I had to cancel out of a few things because of this… not being able to put much weight on that arm makes it hard [...]

This has probably been mentioned all over, but I wanted to note it here as well:
Cartoon pioneer William Hanna dead at 90

As a graduate of animation school, the limited nature of this work bothered me… but you can’t demean the appeal and recognition of The Flintstones or Scooby-Doo, or any of the hundreds of other [...]

A pity: I just tried to locate songs by The House Jacks through Bearshare with no luck. I know that former member Austin Willacy has a solo career going now, as he had an MP3 available on Tucows last year. I can’t find the band’s CDs anywhere though.

A cappela is a music style I enjoy [...]

I achieved a personal victory today: I produced my first Pagemaker document! It took a little bouncing between a tutorial book and the program, and I’m sure my document isn’t the most impressive looking ever made yet… but mostly I was pleased with how easily it came together.

That I was able to do it 1.5-handed [...]

The second day of spring today, and Mother Nature is playing a mean prank on us…

It started to snow again this morning. 15 centimeters (about 6 inches) of the white stuff, so far not melting away.

To think: yesterday, I was seeing a large percentage of the winter snows gone, my mood improving tremendously… Mother Nature, [...]

Blogging does have a negative side-effect: such rapid updating often leads to sloppy proof-reading.

I’ve been guilty of this far too many times: hours or even days after posting something to a Blog, I re-read it and discover tons of typos that I let slip by.

Frustrating, because I’m a Website designer by trade. Proofing pages before [...]

Village Peoples leatherman dies. I tracked down his name now: Glenn Hughes.

“All the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray. I went for a walk… at the YMCA…”

Sad news yesterday of the death of two parts of my pop-culture heritage. I wanted to commemorate both yesterday, but a system freeze kept me from doing so.

John Phillips of the Mamas and the Papas was announced [...]

I went out a few minutes ago to get myself lunch. The snow is continuing to melt, the weather is milder than we’re used to…

Ghod willing, this means winter is ending.

Granted, we’ve had much colder winters in the past. I think that after the last few mild ones, we just aren’t prepared to handle a [...]
