This past weekend we flew up to Washington to visit Jennifer’s sister and her husband and daughter. It was an enjoyable time; I like my sister-in-law and her family, and my niece F (not her real name) is a blast to hang out with. A few highlights: During the flight up, one of the passengers [...]

Renovation: WorldCon 2011

Monday, August 22nd, 2011
Tags: , ,

And before that, Dragon*Con 2005. And before that, Dragon*Con 2001. Dragon*Con is a very different beast than WorldCon is. Since [...]

Everything’s Amazing and Nobody’s Happy

Friday, July 16th, 2010

Watch this video: I won’t belabor Louis CK’s point here. He’s right, after all. I have a cell phone more powerful than any other electronic gadget I’ve ever owned, but I get impatient with it when it takes more than a second to render an image on the screen. Seriously, we need to keep these [...]
