The way I figure it, the problem with being unemployed isn’t as much the lack of means — somehow that’s going to work out — but the deprecation of social standing. So if you’re going to be unemployed, better to do it during a time when a lot of other people are also out of [...]

How am I — how is *anyone* — supposed to trust this guy to be an objective arbiter of good-bad when he lacks the self-awareness to openly address is inadequacies? Plainly, *plainly*, someone who “knows” whether someone has been bad or good during the course of a given year *should* also know what gifts said [...]

I’ve had this dream like three times in the last couple months: I’m on vacation. The vacation’s a week long. It’s day six and I realize I haven’t done anything yet and I start getting panicky about how I can cram enough into the last two days of the vacation to not feel like I [...]

Sorry, got way behind on my holidays. And still haven’t firmed up my Pearl Harbor Day plans. I gotta out-do last year. If that’s possible. bkd

(See tabs at top of page.) If I manage to find all the photo pages I used to have on the ol’ BootlegSports side, I’ll post ‘em there. Otherwise, I may or may not. Only time can tell. bkd

He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother Wait till they merge with the Feds. You’ll see. bkd

Not outrageously expensive to buy a home; national average would be a good fit — a real estate market conforming to fundamental values would be a huge, huge plus. Traffic isn’t a disincentive to do things. Low average tax rate. Relatively respectful of the second amendment. A lot of easily-accessible, worthwhile, pretty outdoor opportunities (mountains, [...]

There’s this one spot on Marguerite Parkway where, when heading southbound, my bike’s speedometer just stops working. All instruments register zero. They don’t blink, just — the speedo stops recognizing that the bike is moving. Only happens the one direction and not the other. Between La Barca and Olympiad. It’s pleasantly unnerving. And I suppose [...]

In case no one else has said it to you yet, Happy Flag Day. Thought this’d be as good a day as any to post a photo of one of my favorite recent acquisitions: Got this last fall off of eBay. I still don’t get why you capitalize days of the week but not names [...]
