Col­lec­tion of thoughts and issues, as I work them out. These rarely have any chrono­log­i­cal val­ue, but just get fit in with the rest of things.

They Don’t Even Taste The Same

I would just like to pub­licly apol­o­gize to every­one whom I’ve ever told that Chick­en Marsala and Chick­en Masala are the same dish. Angela final­ly admon­ished me upon fur­ther spread­ing such lies. I feel I’ve let you all down. For now on, I’ll con­sult with experts pri­or to spread­ing such culi­nary falsehoods.

What My Lens Has Taught Me

This is sort of a response to a post at Kev­in’s blog about pho­tog­ra­phy and dig­i­tal manip­u­la­tion. I fig­ured my activ­i­ty on my own site has been a trick­le late­ly, so I’d just post here instead of just leav­ing him a lengthy response. If you aren’t already read­ing Kevin and Katie’s blog, you should be.… Con­tin­ue read­ing What My Lens Has Taught Me

Happy Birthday Perplexion

A hap­py one year anniversary/birthday to Sta­cie’s Per­plex­ion (For­mer­ly, the Deep Thoughts of) today. While she may not post very often, I always look for­ward to read­ing every word. Some­thing about the way she writes about life can make me smile about even some of the small­est of things.

The Wonders Of Modern Medicine

Well, you usu­al­ly don’t hear any­thing about phar­ma­cists in the news. We have heard a lot over the last week or so, and it has­n’t been all that favorable.

What’s Her Name’s Husband — Part II

Ali­son Piep­meier1 recent­ly wrote a great post on women not not tak­ing their hus­band’s name upon mar­riage. I sput­tered out a few ran­dom remarks in the com­ments sec­tion, but it amount­ed to lit­tle more than inco­her­ent spam. How­ev­er, it did get me think­ing quite a bit on my mar­riage and Ange­la’s deci­sion. Even more recent­ly,… Con­tin­ue read­ing What’s Her Name’s Hus­band — Part II

Challenger Incident at Twenty

Twen­ty years ago today, the U.S. space pro­gram suf­fered what was, at that time, it’s great­est tragedy to date. The Shut­tle Chal­lenger explod­ed in a both glo­ri­ous and hor­ri­ble show­er of flames short­ly after lift-off. Aboard were sev­en explor­ers, some mil­i­tary, some sci­en­tists or engi­neers, and one school teacher select­ed to take part in a… Con­tin­ue read­ing Chal­lenger Inci­dent at Twenty

How I Know I’ll Be Married A Long Time — Part II

Angela informed me Mon­day evening after we both got home from work that from now on, Mon­day would be piz­za night. We could either make it at home (which I love) or order. We’ll spend the evening watch­ing a movie as well. It was tru­ly hard to hide my tears of joy.

‘Ol Blue Eyes

Last week, while on a job site inspec­tion some build­ing foun­da­tions1, I had what must be the strangest con­ver­sa­tion with a con­trac­tor yet: Con­trac­tor (to me): Yeah, so we’ll just have the addi­tion­al bars deliv­ered in the morn­ing rather than attempt use some replace­ments… say, is that your nat­ur­al eye col­or or do wear some sort… Con­tin­ue read­ing ‘Ol Blue Eyes
