Memories of a Map
When I was a kid we had a map on the wall of the United States. I haven’t thought of that map in years, until…well, I’ll get to that. The Wife and I just got back from a one-night trip … Continue reading
Your Daily Dose of Christmas

After the month of dark and grim and scary and brooding music, let’s return to something a bit lighter, shall we? This duofold selection is one of the most beloved opera extracts of all time; in fact, this selection is … Continue reading
Bad Joke Friday
A curious new establishment sprang up on the summit of Mount Olympus overnight. Where once the Gods would sit, there was now a fast-casual bakery-cafe featuring salads, sandwiches, bagels, and soup in bread bowls, staffed entirely by satyrs playing reed … Continue reading
