Yes, it’s a low-rider school bus. This also came from the Dream Cruise a while back.
Phone interview yesterday. I botched part of it, but as far as I can tell, I nailed the rest of it. We’ll see what happens.
Ed and his family came over last night. They showed up a [...]

A 1934 Ford from the Woodward Dream Cruise a few years ago.
Yesterday, Steve took a short video of me talking about my skills and catching stuffed penguins. It was meant to be a 45-second pseudo-interview that’ll eventually go on Josh’s blog. So we got the MPEG-2 downloaded to his ‘Doze box, and none [...]

A heron, with ducks, from years ago when I still lived in Michigan and there was a small bit of marshy land behind my apartment.
Went to trivia last night with Zach and Nathan and Sara and Kelly and John and everyone. We came in second. The bar had just remodeled their kitchen, so there were [...]

This is probably one of the oldest drawings I’ve scanned in. Very little has changed. I heard something that sounded really strange: Apparently if you’re eligible for unemployment in 2 or more states, you can go to Massachusetts and apply for unemployment there. I don’t know what combination of laws [...]

Another old drawing. I guess the trouble is that I only have 4 or 5 more of these old drawings, and will have to come up with some new things to post after that.
The header images were all created with Xaos, but using that to create images for the one-post-a-day seems wrong. There [...]

A very, very old drawing that I scribbled in a spare moment and scanned a while ago.
Mostly, this is here because I want to have at least one new post every day. Yep, this is not going to be a stagnant blog.

This blogging system has a few warts in it. Most of the links to archives, categories, recent posts, and so forth will not work if you have certain themes installed. I thought it was a problem with mod_rewrite, and it turned out that the theme “cutline-3-column-split-11″ was completely hosing the URLs. (And [...]

Fuzzball sitting on the couch with her toy. I rescued her in August 2005 after she’d been abandoned by her previous owner. She only weighs 6 pounds, loves to play, and loves people. You’re lucky you don’t have to hear her meow, as she’s half Siamese and inherited the Siamese voice.
She loved [...]

So I’ve been laid off, after almost 7 years working for the same company. This is annoying. So it’s back to job hunting, though I’m out of practice. Several of the folks at PLUG have offered to help me with that in various ways—you guys rock. I’ve signed up with LinkedIn [...]

This is a test. This is only a test. If it had been a real blog post, it would’ve been filled with vapid navel-gazing and speling errors. Right? Right.
