I'm a little ashamed for thinking, much less saying, this but ... I really kind of detest the science fair. It isn't because science isn't really my thing, or that I'm opposed to exploring a topic of interest, it's just that it turns into so much work without much reward. It's hard to be excited … Continue reading Observations and the science fair

Crushed for my crush
I was absolutely heartbroken yesterday to learn that Sentinel Butchery had closed their doors after a valiant attempt to provide best quality, local meats to the Capital District. Maybe you never had a chance to get to Emily Peterson's shop or consume the products she brought from farm to table, but I assure it was … Continue reading Crushed for my crush
Never, ever
You know how they say “Never say never?” Well, despite that old adage there are few things in life that I personally never want to do.

David Bowie and Fame Right
Last Friday, we played a Spotify station to celebrate David Bowie's 69th birthday. Less than three days later, he was dead. I guess that's how it goes. We never know how long the journey from birth to death is really going to be, do we? I can't claim to have been the biggest Bowie fan … Continue reading David Bowie and Fame Right
Holidaze 2015
Despite having sent out 95 holiday cards, I still feel as if the holidays passed by without nearly enough time for me to make contact with all of the people I had hoped. Shit, I guess I can say the same thing about the entire year. Sometimes I think that TIME is the ultimate 4-letter … Continue reading Holidaze 2015
