That Was Sudden
Not exactly where I had intended to start, this week, but it’s a significant enough development that I can be flexible. So, Cruz has “suspended his campaign,” leaving (realistically) only Trump as a viable Republican candidate (and believe me, I … Continue reading

Equipment, Part 1
As promised, I intend to take a look or two at some equipment over the coming months. I hope to be rather tongue-in-cheek about it all, while still providing accurate reviews, the better to decide for yourselves whether the stuff … Continue reading

Scared, Yet?
If not, you might not be paying attention. Now, this isn’t an existential dread. No, this is a worry for what may be coming–another type of disaster, if you will; one that I fear is more than a little bit … Continue reading

Tribulations
Well, it’s been a very trying couple of weeks. The weather has been–let’s call it “less than cooperative”. There are family issues to work out. My workplace is in a state of flux. And then the technical issues of the … Continue reading

As Was Mentioned Earlier
Yes, it’s the silly season. In addition to the domestic chaos I mentioned last week, the news of late has been full of–well, let’s just say, there’s not enough facepalm in the world. It’s been fascinating, in a train-wreck sort … Continue reading
