A nice spot between my birthday and wedding anniversary. It’s 27 days late but as the cliché goes…better late than never. What to talk about? How about the math. Let’s see, this format began on July 3, 2005. That makes … Continue reading

Happy 75th Birthday to Bugs Bunny
A landmark birthday for a signature cartoon character. I regret not having anything bigger for him but I think the first fly-by of Pluto and more urgent matters in my life give me a pass. The Time-Warner Empire on the … Continue reading
Bonne Anniversaire Christina!
The 27th is always a great and eventful day. My trilingual friend who turned out to be the best legacy of working at DG celebrates her special day (I already knew Rad via Stvee, he doesn’t count). What’s the plan? … Continue reading

Congratulations Nelson on his new gig
My only remaining friend/family in Chicago started a new position this Monday. He had been searching for a while and it can be tough in the Midwest, a region stuck in a rut from many directions. This attitude is why my … Continue reading

Happy Birthday Kristin!
Lucky person. She got David X Cohen, the co-creator/developer of Futurama and Patrick Stewart/Captain Picard. It’s good to have her back after a little vacation from her former hometown of Baltimore. I’ll allow Kristin to have an exception in being allowed … Continue reading

Happy birthday to my kitty Isis
Unlike some cowards in the Middle East and at FXX, I’m sticking by this name since it fits her and she continues to respond to it. Her birthday picture is a looping GIF because cats are like children, they don’t … Continue reading

This month’s theme is Pluto!
New Horizons will finally zoom by Pluto, get pictures and other data but I’m confident the whole planet debate will continue. As I’ve said before, I am with the ASU’s position of it is not. The loudest voices in the is camp … Continue reading

Happy Birthday Radman!
The coolest, calmest, most zen dude I’ve ever met. Plus he almost kicked a homeless guy’s ass when he pulled a suspicious move on me. It was my fault. I wasn’t taunting the dude, I was just trying to converse … Continue reading
