We Interupt this Swiss Programming for a Masticatory Break

I drove Mr. Wild Dingo to the airport yesterday. Nothing like arriving in a new country for 2 days and throwing me to the lions with "drive here and go there and speak to these people."  After the stress of driving on the highways and getting honked at in traffic circles, I came home to […]

Last Tour of Santa Cruz

Lifeguard on Duty

"Hey Daddy-O, how much you think this job pays?" "Princess, there isn't a big enough, juicy enough bone in the world to make me do this job."

What Would Socrates Say?

I came home the other day and found Juno had done a little light reading. So I asked her what she learned. "The unexamined book is not worth reading. But it sure is worth chewing."
