Tabs. So many tabs.
I don’t even know how I end up with this many tabs open. :: Pop-up Instagram bakeries during the pandemic. This article is a couple years old, but it showed up on some feed or other that I follow, so … Continue reading

We interrupt our serious content for something silly.
Someone called my attention to a quiz the other day: Can you recognize these classic TV stars with their faces covered in pie? My results weren’t fantastic! A couple are obvious, but several were either process-of-elimination or pure guesswork. Still, … Continue reading
Speaking of made-up “holidays”….
…today is, according to someone, Pie In The Face Day! If you Google it, several dates come up (July 1 is one), but the most common is November 27. I’ve no idea why November 27 is the date for this, unless the … Continue reading

National Pie In The Face Day!!!
According to somebody, November 27 is “National Pie in the Face Day”. The last few days I’ve been posting some of my favorite photos of myself in a pied-face state, with nifty quotes attached, to social media because let’s face … Continue reading

It’s April Fools Day! I’m not a huge fan of this day as a celebration of pranking people, seeing if you can embarrass them or get them to believe some false news story or the like. But I’d be all … Continue reading
Pi Day!!!
(NOTE: This is a repost of last year’s Pi Day post. I didn’t get a chance to generate any new content–i.e., shoot a new video in which I get a pie in the face in the midst of a lesson … Continue reading
Three One Four
It’s Pi Day, everyone! It is also Albert Einstein’s birthday and, sadly, this year’s edition marks the passing of Stephen Hawking, about which I’ll have more to say later. But for now, let’s celebrate Pi! Calculate Pi yourself! NASA’s Pi … Continue reading
Greta Thyssen
Roger notified me of the passing recently of actress Greta Thyssen at the age of 90. I confess that I had no idea at all who she was, but thankfully, Roger provided context. In addition to her film career she … Continue reading
On choosing happiness
A lot of people I know–most people I know, likely—struggle with happiness. They struggle with keeping it once it’s found, and they struggle with finding it in the first place. Some struggle more mightily than that: some have to fight … Continue reading
