Peculiar Picture #38

After all this time, I'd wished pictures like this were no longer relevant. Check it out (here).

The Cult of Cuteness

My wife often describes things as "cute," but do I like things that are cute? Read about it (here).

Close Encounters

I've had two recent encounters with spiders. Read about them (here).

The Fallacy of Fairness

I was raised on the concept of “fairness,” but lately I’ve wondered if fairness is a notion that should be lumped together with the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny. Read about it (here). 

 

Passivity

Growing up, I decided that being passive wasn't going to get me the future I imagined. Read about it (here).

Fish Heads

It won’t come as a surprise to anyone that I have a robust appetite and don’t turn down much when it comes to food, but there is one notable exception. Read about it (here). 

 

A Princess and Stolen Gold

She had been a princess of Spain and I'd come to pay her homage, but things didn't go as planned. Read about it (here).

Peculiar Picture #37

  It’s been a while since I opened my illustration file and posted a Peculiar Picture. Check this one out (here).

 

Fourteen Years

A few words on the anniversary of 9/11. Very few. Read them (here).

Standing On Ceremony

I’m sure you’ve heard that Pope Francis is coming to America. He won’t be visiting Oregon so I won’t have an opportunity to see him, but there was a time when I did see a pope. Read about it (here).       

    

Piano Guy

He showed up at flea markets, parks, but mostly on the street when I was grabbing a bite or headed to a movie. I never knew his name but he was one of the greatest musicians I ever heard. Read about him (here).

 

Protest Update

 

While I’m happy with the progress I’ve made, my second version of The Protest is taking longer than expected. I’d hoped to be done by September, but I still have a month left to go, maybe more. Read about it (here).

The Scam Artist: Conclusion

I needed to shake the scam artist trying to separate me from my money, but could I do it? Read about it (here).
