At the Ridge….
For the first time since Cane died last September, I went hiking at Chestnut Ridge Park yesterday. Chestnut Ridge is an old park whose development by Erie County began back in the late 1920s, and a lot of the park’s … Continue reading
Behold the Ritual Clearing of the Tabs
Yup, it’s that time again: When I look at Chrome and realize, “Wow, I have a lot of tabs open to stuff.” :: On the oldest book in the world printed with movable type, and it’s not the Gutenberg Bible: The … Continue reading

“And there was evening, and there was morning—the fifth day”
