I’m not one to gloat (yeah, who am I kidding), but I would like to report how things turned out last night while playing Rummy with Jason and Bryan. But first, a bit of background. Historically, I was never really a competitive person. Hell, I left the architecture/design field because I hated receiving criticism. I […]
What a remarkable week this has been. Well, not really. But when it comes to blasts from the past, this past week has been highly unusual. First were Golden and Ruthie (as mentioned yesterday). Then today I came in to work to find an email from Amy B. – somebody I had dated in the […]

It seemed rather fitting as I approached the following: I looked up to see the ubiquitious A&F billboard displaying a topless man exposing a lovely nipple that, at that […]
I’m just kidding. I really do love this time of year. But my heading today is mocking yesterday’s heading for Jason’s blog: Ex Post Facto. You see, Jason came over last night for our fairly regular Rummy matches. And he quickly and efficiently ended my one game winning streak* with little effort. The distractions of […]
