Found Winter Photo: Bikini Skiing, Oh Brave New World
The last time I posted a “found” winter photo I prefaced with the following: “I figured that it was time to start posting some cool “found” winter pictures, the way I do for summer. The thing is, it is not nearly as easy to find fun, photos of winter–it’s a more serious season, in many…

Winter Photos: Safety First
I figured that it was time to start posting some cool “found” winter pictures, the way I do for summer. The thing is, it is not nearly as easy to find fun, photos of winter–it’s a more serious season, in many ways. Google “winter” and you get a lot of landscapes and snowy foliage, as…

Where Is That Guy?
So, it has come to this: I feel guilty for not posting, and more guilty for not making time to read your blogs. I’m drowning in notifications… I was going to write about all the things I’m not writing about–you know, because it’s been a good week with a lot going on, but I’ve been…

The Saturday Snow White Variations: She’s Baaaaaack

Another Saturday Snow White Variation
I don’t have much narrative for this week–just a surprising volume of Snow White art that I discovered in less time than you think. I’m not sure why I find the volume and variation so interesting, but I do. (My wife doesn’t–she just looked over my shoulder and said “I think people are sick of…

The Saturday Morning Snow White Variations 1
As I’ve mentioned elsewhere–most recently in a post I’ve already written that you haven’t seen yet!–I like having themes woven through this blog, little bits of this and that that serve as prompts and inspirations when I have time to write, or as visual filler when I don’t. The Saturday Morning Snow White Variations will…

Still Cold As Hell
It’s still cold, cold, cold. At least the latest (guffaw) “Storm of the Century” glanced by us, dropping about an inch of powder, after the regional meteorologists bent over backwards and lost their shit playing Chicken Little and pledging a foot of heavy wet snow. I love wearing sweaters, but this is getting a little…
