is to remove the LT. Although I would use smoked cheese…

Recipe for Ice Cubes

No, really.  A recipe for Ice Cubes. As Paul Hsieh at GeekPress says, read the comments, they’re the best part.

And now, for something sort-of different

Job seeking is really kicking my butt.  I used to tell clients that job seeking is a full time job.  It has become that and more.  It would probably be easier if I were just spamming applications, but I’m trying to get on with organizations that participate in the same retirement system I spent 26 [...]

A good idea

Over the years I’ve had a number of “good ideas.”  Some of them haven’t worked out so well.  For example, around 1970, our family spent Christmas in Southern California.  Cool, huh?  Ocean beaches, LA, Hollywood, Beverly Hills.  Except that’s not what my family meant by Southern California.  We spent Christmas in Blythe, on the Arizona [...]

New Year, New Cheese

I don’t do new year’s resolutions.  I’ve written before about it, but the short version is that I see New Year’s Day as an accident of chronology.  We are roughly in the same place, relative to the sun, we were 365¼ days ago.  Not the most rational reason to embark on potentially life-altering projects.  Besides, [...]
