  • Some changes, German aromas

    Posts have been sporadic lately. Granted, by most blogs’ standards, I am pretty punctual. I’ve missed nine days this year. Not bad. But not what I planned this site for. I remember in 2000, I used to post up to four or five times a day. I want to get back to that. Part of…

  • Post will be delayed

    By a few hours. Stayed up all night doing taxes. Hope to have something up by 9:30 AM EST. 🙂

  • I need your help

    Tell some jokes today. I got up at 3am yesterday for a day trip in and out of Washington, D.C. and it fried my brain. I got home in plenty of time to post, but I was dry. Nada. So please, entertain me. I need a recharge.

  • Back tomorrow

    Apologies for not posting. I was stuck at Chicago O’Hare airport all night.

  • New look

    I guess I never did get around to updating this site’s appearance last year. There are of course, a few bugs, missing features and visual tweaks still. Safari is not displaying the comment editing buttons, but you can tell what they are by hovering your mouse over them. More new features to come over the…

  • Rest in peace, St. Augustine

    [1998-2005] This weekend while I was in Toronto, my cats managed to open the screen door and get onto the balcony. When I came home, the youngest one was nowhere to be found. Tuesday night I found him huddled and shaking under a bush. He died Wednesday evening from internal injuries (he fell two stories…

  • Watch where you shake that thing!

    This is a post for the gentlemen. Brothers, it’s time for a lesson in etiquette. As longtime author of Manly Tips for Bachelor Living and creator of the best-selling calendar of the same name, I feel I have at least a modicum of authority. Please, please, for the love of God. If you’re at the…

  • The first one’s always free

    You may be hooked emotionally and psychologically. You may have developed a physical dependence, too. If you’re addicted to Flickr — whether it’s legal or illegal — you have intense cravings for it. You want to use it again and again. When you stop seeing your photostream for even ten minutes, you may have unpleasant…

  • Dave Shea is an artichoke

    Yours truly has interviewed the talented and prolific author, Molly Holzschlag for Digital Web magazine. Yes, it’s a silly read. Read the interview

  • A favor

    I have a confession. I’ve not been very pleased with this site over the past year. No, I am not going to give up posting. I just want to improve the content. I reread some of my older entries and in 2001-2003 I wrote some great entries. Last year, I could count on one hand…

    There was a spamming attack on this site from midnight through 1am. Apologies to all who were unable to get through.
