Astro
Photography, that is. Last week I was blessed with (a) a clear night, and (b) very little moonlight. This led to a brief astrophotography session outside, where I set up my tripod right in my driveway, set my camera’s focus … Continue reading

Tone Poem Tuesday
Whoops, it is Tuesday, isn’t it? Welp! Some Borodin, then: Well, before I get to that, background: the Polovtsian Dances are one of Borodin’s most famous works. It is, in fact, an excerpt from his opera Prince Igor. The opera itself hasn’t endured … Continue reading
Ohhh, let’s get rid of some open tabs, shall we?
Time to clear out the open tabs! Yay! :: Yes, changing the clocks is bad for you. :: If you’re like me, you see all the reports of business closing locations and locking down security measures due to massive increases … Continue reading
Something for Thursday (St. Paddy’s Day on a Sunday edition)
Some Irish music, because…Irish music. And I have no idea if John Williams has any Irish ancestry in him at all, but his score to Far and Away is so good that I am officially declaring him a Temporary Honorary Irish … Continue reading

Pi Day 2024!!!
Another year, another Pi Day that I didn’t observe with anything new…sigh…but here’s a repost of an earlier celebration! It’s Pi Day, everyone! It is also Albert Einstein’s birthday and, sadly, this year’s edition marks the passing of Stephen Hawking, … Continue reading
Whoa….
I’ll have more to say later at some point, but I’ve just read one of the earliest Star Trek novels, a 1974 book called Spock, Messiah!. And it is both super weird and not weird enough. I need to think … Continue reading
Tone Poem Tuesday
Today, a rarity: or something that felt to me like a rarity many years ago, when I was still playing the trumpet (and, I might add, at a pretty high level!). The evolution of the trumpet as an instrument meant … Continue reading
Sunday Thievery
I haven’t done one of these quiz-things in a while, so why not? Roger did this one, and now I’m going to appropriate it. (The quiz is from a blog called Sunday Stealing, so the fact that I’m doing this … Continue reading
