X-Files vs. Fringe

on March 28th, 2011

I was a big fan of the X-Files in its day. The Truth Is Out There! The first episode I saw was Squeeze (thanks to my friend Monte telling me there was a show I just had to see).

A few words about my Dad

on February 26th, 2011

How To Eat Yucky Food

on January 13th, 2011

I ate Ethiopian cuisine last night for the first time. Wow! I love trying new foods, and this was all new to me. Who wouldn’t enjoy food you eat with flatbread (think of it like a thin sourdough pancake) instead of utensils?

on December 17th, 2010

They raced up the dungeon stairs, torches in hand, wondering what else could go wrong. When the metallic “mummy” named Munafik appeared above, with the “golem” X-1 at his shoulder, the players reacted like any party of adventurers–they attacked!

Your Story

on September 28th, 2010

Last night I was packing up some books—a bunch of 80s era books on stars, planets, and cosmology—that I haven’t looked at since I was a kid. I pondered giving them all to Good Will, but something nagged me. It took a moment to pin the thought dow…
