As agreed at some point yesterday, and as is my habit lately, herein is enclosed my report re: this past weekend:Nothing HappenedThe endI really have to work on restoring my exposition skills.Adding to this problem is that I think, at least in Provincetown, there's some environmental thing in the air, because I keep waking up with a headache, a big hole in my bank account, and little memory of the night before.Which makes it hard to recount anything anyway.I do remember people being tied up and that I had monster hiccups.Not much of a story though. ...

rich and well to do suburbanites think their 'solitude' is so much more important than addressing pressing needs for improved civic infrastructure. sudbury, ma residents are fighting the conversion of an old railroad into a bike trail. the bullshit-laden tantrums from grown adults is just hysterical:Looking out at a lushly wooded area beyond a stone wall on her 100-acre estate, Carole Wolfe's face darkened. There, in the distance, she said, nervously pointing a finger, stretches a former rail corridor that, if some have their way, could bring trouble upon this town where her family's roots date to Colonial times."Instead ...

This is kind of cool, archeologists think they have found the boyhood home of George Washington along the banks of the Rappahannock River in Virginia and are excavating it.Washington’s Boyhood Home Is Found George Washington’s boyhood home has been found.Researchers announced Wednesday that remains excavated in the last three years were those of the long-sought dwelling, on the old family farm in Virginia 50 miles south of Washington. The house stood on a terrace overlooking the Rappahannock River, where legend has it the boy threw a stone or a coin across to Fredericksburg. (NY Times...)A little ...

I was fiddling around with the layout, trying out some new templates earlier. I couldn’t find anything I liked, though I did update the header. I figured I had used that old header since I started the blog years ago and it could stand some updating.What’s up there now is a panoramic view from the Tremper Mountain firetower looking to the south and the east mostly. It's probably about a 270 degree view.Is it healthy to be shivering when it’s 85 degrees outside? I’m down here in the basement and I am literally shivering. I made it until about 11 ...

The Big "TIKI TORCH FUEL" label on the bottle?Woman Dies After Accidentally Drinking Torch OilTRENTON (AP) ― New Jersey poison control officials say a Burlington County woman has died and five other people have been sickened in separate incidents around the state after accidentally drinking small amounts of oil used to light patio torches.

While out celebrating my birthday with a few friends at Boston Beer Works, my phone buzzes in my pocket, signaling the arrival of a new email. Surprisingly, its not another birthday wish posted to my Facebook wall, but rather a message sent via match.com (my year-long subscription to which expires July 2nd). It's always with both excitement and dread that I face down a note from match, a sick sort of glee upon finding something in my Inbox which--if I buy into the hype--could contain first contact with my soulmate, but--if I listen to my experience--really will be from another ...

I’m apparently back to the doldrums at work. My few weeks of being busy had been a nice change.I guess all that slow time helped me about with passing the LEED exam though, since I must have taken a ton of practice tests and I had plenty of time to review, review and review some more. The only problem is that now I don't have anything to study for that can take up all that time.Sharon’s coming over for dinner tonight since we had gone out with her for dinner on Sunday night. We’ve got to save money you know, ...

A few dumb things.It's funny, these days I have lots of thoughts, worries, fears, and laughs, fun times, and feeling basically ok, but... I don't write about it much any more.I'm not sure why, to be honest.I don't even take pictures much. I was in Provincetown this weekend and all I took was a picture of this absolutely fascinating moth.But - as fascinating as this creature was - this kind of photo neglect just isn't right.I wonder if I should ask friends if it's ok to put pictures of them here. I generally assume if no one has given ...
