Yes – yes this is another Smile Train plug. You don’t have to read this. Go do your snooty-batootie thing you do and forget about kids in need. Jeeze. For those...
Ah, Ragnar training. I generally have a no-running-outside-when-it’s-under-40 rule, but I couldn’t take the treadmill today. I needed to feel peer pressure from imaginary observers. That, and I know to be a real champion you have to do at least some training in the snow.
Take for example, Little Mac. The guy beat Mike Tyson, Mr. [...]
I don’t even know where to start on this. I could go on and on about how much I love Calvin and Hobbes. I could lament about how taxing this painting was, how the idea came about, how the only thing we knew when we started the room was that Calvin and Hobbes had to [...]
I remember a pile of broken, cloudy glass – just lying at the seal of an opened garage door. I remember the glass because as a small kid, I fell on it, causing me to be rushed to the hospital, covered in blood and enduring all flavors of pain, while doctors pulled glass from my [...]
There were two ways to get to Edward’s Cinema from my Simi Valley home. There was the intelligent way – paved with city sidewalks, stoplights and nicely painted crosswalks – or there were railroad tracks.

The following is part of my response to the still charismatic and occasionally witty Warren Hull. He wondered how my Mac experience was faring in comparison to my life long PC use and I responded with an unusually long email. Since the question is not a new one, I decided to post the important parts [...]
Crime and Punishment marks the end of my “must read” list, as far as Dostoyevsky is concerned. I may pick up The House of the Dead or The Idiot somewhere down the road, but as of a few hours ago , I’ve closed the last chapter I plan to read of his for a long [...]
I’m finding that the more I think about Notes from the Underground, the more grumpy I become. I remember back when reading Brothers Karamazov, I called Carlos and said, “This book has no plot.” He kind of chuckled and responded, “It’s not really about the plot, Travis.” It was one of those, “dang it, I’m [...]
For the first time in my voting life, I actually believed I was going to be torn between two great presidential candidates. There was a moment there, though brief and anti-climactic, where it looked like Mitt Romney was going to take the GOP. Barack Obama had somehow one-upped the Clintons, and had California (land [...]
