Apologia
Well, folks…sorry about the lack of posting the last few days, but the sails have been pretty slack and wind-free. Part of it — quite a large part of it, actually — was the shockingly rapid health decline of a … Continue reading
Of Tumbling Walls
I don’t remember much about the fall of the Berlin Wall. That is to say, I remember nothing about it. The event happened when I was barely two months into my freshman year of college. I was trying to focus … Continue reading

"Arrrr! Ride me carousel, maties!"
Carousel, II, originally uploaded by Jaquandor. The Carousel at the Fair is one of my favorite things there, because it’s a gorgeous ride and its art is pirate-themed. Drink up, me hearties! Yo ho!
