Glenmorangie Cake

It's been a while since the last review and, considering I have a bottle that's deserving and nearing its end, it's time. This is one of...

Apollo 13

Earlier this week I stumbled upon Apollo 13 (1995) on YouTubeTV while looking for something to just have on. I planned to be doing other...

Richmond and Petersburg

We had time for one last short trip before the move. The timeline aligned with my birthday and my wife let me decide where to go (and...

Leaving home, part 2

Well it's over. We moved. And it was a stressful week. If you're a reader here (by which you almost certainly know me personally) you may...

Noise noise noise noise

I frequently have to laugh in looking back at some of the older About Me posts. Right now I'm thinking about The Inquisitive Toddler and...

Dune

I intended to write this before the film came out. Alas, whatever, it wasn't meant to be. I've been a fan of Dune since first reading the...

Just Maryland things

There's bound to be culture shock moving from one part of the country to another. Going from Minnesota, home of 'Minnesota Nice' and an...

Hershey, PA

During our last full calendar month in Maryland, we've worked in multiple short and drivable trips to re-see places one more time. About...

High West Rendezvous Rye

I bought a bottle of High West Rendezvous Rye back when I was accumulating bottles for 'research' purposes earlier this year. The goal...

A Johnnie Walker vertical

If you're curious about or like a brand of whiskey (or anything else really), the best way to test the numerous options is something...

It pays to check (mower repair)

The self-propulsion on my mower cut out a little while back, before our house-hunting trip to Minnesota. As a result I've mowed a few...

Raiders of the North Sea

I like board games, I just don't get many chances to play them these days. Though they've always had another angle (Christmas day,...

September 11 (the first pitch)

I'm a day late and dollar short to this, a few actually, but I don't think that matters. Now past the 20 year anniversary, which feels...

Leaving home

Things got away from me for a bit there. For what it's worth I never meant to have such a long layoff (a whole month!) but we're a little...

John Williams (and the Olympics)

Music generally isn't a huge deal to me. I don't spend much time exploring artists or keeping up with what's popular and just kinda...

Peter Cullen

Maybe you don't know the name off-hand, but (to me at least) Peter Cullen has an immediately recognizable voice. And it's largely because...

Learning to let go

Before becoming a parent I did some of the mental preparation that often comes with before that big life change. This is a very general...
