For those of you following along, yesterday I went over my idea for a reboot of The Office called The Class. If you don’t remember, go back and check it out here. We’ll wait. Well, today I was perusing through my twitter feed – and came upon this: And then I checked out the article. … Continue reading A Titanic Coincidence
Christmas time. The time to be with the ones you love? Well, yeah. How else would you come up with one of the most important parts of the holiday season? Traditions! You can’t be expected to invent them all by yourself, can you? You need to share them and talk about them, so that you … Continue reading All the Traditions
Tonight was Elf night. The night we watch the movie Elf as part of our annual Christmas movie watching festival. As tradition dictates, chili was served for our yearly visit with Buddy the Elf. Why chili? Well, many years ago our daughter had her friend Olivia over to spend the night on a December Saturday. … Continue reading Elf
I haven’t written anything in a while. There have been so many major things happening and I just haven’t felt like putting in the work. Being an accountant, though, I get all queasy knowing that I spent the money for a year of blogging software that I’m not using. I know no-one ever really reads … Continue reading Whims

We have been saying for years that if the Red Sox ever play at National’s Park, we need to go. We’ve been to Fenway, seen them in San Francisco and Seattle, and went for a series of years to Camden Yards – or it’s actual name – Fenway South. The Nationals are the closest team … Continue reading Baseball, Fireworks, and Interstates
So to repeat myself, I like to take pictures. One important requirement to be a photographer is to slow down and look around. To try to see the things that are right in front of you, but you may not always notice. I started awhile ago on my daily Tumblr blog to post what I … Continue reading Lunch Views 2
When I was in high school and college I fell hard for Jonathan Demme’s brilliant concert movie Stop Making Sense. I wasn’t really that big a fan of the Talking Heads at the time, but I loved the experience of seeing the movie. It made me a fan. It was unpredictable, kind of dangerous, and … Continue reading Stop Making Sense
