(Well, maybe not to you, but definitely to me.) Someday, there will be a LOT more of these things. (Not theses, but OPAC entries!)
it’s about freaking time.
Eric (von) Huber finally has a blog! Given that he and I seem doomed forever to communication via voicemail and text messaging, it’s a wonderful proposition that I could at least know the essentials of his life (A few germane examples: When’s the wedding? What, he has Internet access at home again?! And, has he …
A Company of Soldiers
Check out “A Company of Soldiers” tonight on KERA 13 (in Dallas) or on your PBS station.

apoplectic.
Do you ever have a word knocking around in your head that feels like the right word, even though you’re not sure why? I’ve been thinking about Lewis Black a lot lately (’cause we went to see him Friday, and all), and the word I’ve been wanting to use to describe him is apoplectic. I …

no need for the gym. I’ve got a backyard.
OOF. In the beautiful weather that pervaded yesterday, I got this crazy idea to clean out the backyard of all the wintertime debris that had accumulated — leaves, twigs, and other, less enjoyable (dog-related) stuff. So I grabbed a rake and went to work. An hour later, I had two great big bags full of …
blog notes ….
Curtis’s blog has a new look. Spiffy! A random guy posted a comment on my blog last week. From North Carolina. I’m loving the pictures! 🙂 Daniel thinks that if he had a blog, we’d never have to talk again … we could just catch up on one another’s lives via the blogs. Wouldn’t that …
