I show off the pure, raw athletic ability that would have made me an all-conference performer if I hadn’t spent my high school years concentrating my studies on becoming a trombone virtuoso*. By virtuoso, I mean last chair.

Truth Perception I should give thanks to Micky for helping make this picture possible. He saved a few lotus(es) from Lake Augustin. I should also point out that while I thought about this picture for a long time, I didn’t really executed as wisely as I could have. I did… Read More »Personal Photo Project of the Week #87
Some pretty sweet pictures of my uncles not wearing shirts in this volume! I wonder how long that flag pole lasted because it couldn’t have been too many more years before they built the addition to the high school that destroyed Blair Park.
I hate the phrase “things happen for a reason” more than I hate any other phrase in the world. That doesn’t mean that I don’t necessarily believe in fate, but for the most part I don’t like fate. Its plans run contrary to my plans, no matter how hard I… Read More »Giant Steps
