Nuclear Timelapse & The Cold War

November 19, 2013

The below video of a time-lapse map of the 2053 nuclear explosions which have taken place between 1945 and 1998 is an interesting video but not a surprising one.  It’s been around the links share before but today I re-found the video from an article that remarks on the speedup during the Cold War and […]

Memory Touchstones

May 20, 2013

Right now I’m unpacking (and sorting) some stuff that was packed away for a bit of construction.  I’ve been slowly going through the process and reached a point I had to stop because of the intensity of memory.  There are many things that provoke memories.  Scents can call up a scene as can certain tastes.  […]

Writer’s Block

May 13, 2013

A silly poem for all the unwritten posts of the past weeks:   Bloggy bloggy let me write Know the way unto the light Past the turn style past the wall Let the ink flow, stop the stall. Bloggy bloggy written now Let me see the when, the how. Words to flow and patterns found. […]

Trust, Inspiration and Tribes

April 12, 2013

I was on the #joiito channel when Stephanie Booth pointed to her post about her blogging tribe experiment.  I immediately said I was interested…and then in spite of many idaes they never made it from my brain to my fingertips.  After watching (a second time) Amanda Palmer’s amazing TED talk on the Art of Asking […]

Moon Rise

November 28, 2012

The full moon rises And the two worlds join The sidhe dancing in the meadows Where the students laugh. The fool moon rises And the jester plays Dancing on the edge Where the weaving fades The full moon rises Shining light and shadow Dark rustles in edges Of the moonbeam’s shine. The fool moon rises […]

The Lizzie Bennet Diaries

November 1, 2012

This was going to be a Facebook post, but then I realized I had more than a little to say on the subject and that this blog has been languishing in disrepair…or at least lack of new content so I thought I’d write my thoughts here. Strangely this post starts when I was talking with […]

Bugs and Patches and WoW

September 24, 2012

The other day I was hanging out in Mumble talking with some guildies (in iToons) and we were talking about bugs in WoW and how easy/hard it could be to find or fix a bug.  Most particularly we were talking about the “no xp from turning in dailies” that occurred at the start of Cataclysm […]

Yam Soup Recipe

April 18, 2012

Just as a bit of a background on this recipe.  The 7th day of Passover is historically when the Jews crossed the Sea of Reeds (sometimes mistakenly written as the Red Sea).  In Hebrew the Sea of Reeds is “Yam Suf”.   So…loving to play with words as I do, on the 7th day of Passover […]
