  • Bag Man

    Apparently Kickstarter has decided I fit the profile of someone who wants the perfect bag. They may not be wrong. One reason why I love winter is I can justify wearing a coat. My favorite coat has a gallon in pocket space. I can carry ALL THE CRAP. Phone, novel, notebook, pens, change, receipts, camera, chargers, headphones,…

  • New Page: Teeshirts

    I added a new page, Teeshirts, to this site. It joins my other pages: Reading, About Me, and Quotes to Make You Think.

  • Ethnic Tshirt Ban

    A local school has banned teeshirts with “ethnic” messages. Does that mean that sports team jerseys like for the Indians or the Braves are now banned? Probably not.
