Cornucopia

poor play from every level, but especially awful from the quarterback and predictably awful from the secondary. No more eagles football for me this year. Fire ’em all and start…

It’s been awhile, and I admit I’ve taken us for granted, but since 1996, we’ve been up and running. I can’t do that math, but it’s a lot of years.

Got to go to the game thanks to Steve, and we won. 2022 was a good year for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Stepping into the baggage claim terminal of PHL always hits me with such incredibly strong nostalgia for the handful of times in high school that I drove out here to…

It took them every second of twelve quarters to do it, but the Philadelphia Eagles managed to clinch the #1 seed in the NFC and that all-important bye week next…

It’s 2023. Let’s make it a more financially-successful, more creative and more adventurous year this year. Let’s finally close the door on this pandemic, allowing us to reconnect with friends…

What a family of pack rats we are! I guess, in this case, it’s good, because it’s really neat to see an entire sheet of Carrols fun-n-stix (or is that…

We spent almost the whole summer sitting in a driveway. I was thinking about this a lot last week, and I don’t remember what I did with most of my…

But I’m glad it happened the first week of the season. 25 years, 500 million dollars to fucking Wentz really was a bonehead move, as I predicted it would be…

Towards the beginning of quarantine (and before i knew just how canceled my entire life was going to be), I finally came to understand a truth about the office, and…

It’s been awhile since I’ve done any kind of revamp on Clapboard, and a change that I only recently noticed to the way that WordPress itself handles featured items prompted…

I know blogging for the sake of blogging is dead, but I still kinda like it, so I’m going to try it again. Since my last update, I’ve traveled a…

My dad used to bring it home from Boeing VERTOL in Philly, back when it was still just an outpost of one of many. Now, I have no idea where…

It’s been time for a while now to start scanning some old imagery, writing and docs, both meaningful and trivial. I’m starting with more recent history, two 8x10s from two…

It’s been too long, Clapboard.  I’m coming back to creating things, even if it’s just long, breathless rants about nothing.  Time to get creating again, and putting words on paper…

I may be the auto industry’s version of a basic bitch. Rains for one day, i run out and buy new wipers for both cars. Also, when some poor sap…

Unexpected business? Yeah, so that’s good. The holidays are always busy, expensive and fraught with uncertainty, and this year isn’t any different, it turns out. No steady work? No problem…

Life’s been weird the last six months.  I’ve done a lot of thinking about travel, some actual travel (including my first cruise?) and some shooting recently.  Let’s see if I…

Hey guys! Merry Christmas to all and to all a good day!

Okay, first of all, at least the goddamn Cowboys lost yesterday. Second, why isn’t there more consternation about the NFL’s changes to their TV contracts?  Maybe everyone lives in their…

As a general caveat, I’ve never really understood lists.  I mean, I get shopping lists, To Do lists and the like, but “the ten cutest apples at the farmer’s market” lists just baffle me.  I like reading them just fine, but I never think in lists, nor do I often think, “man, this is the THIRD BEST plank-baked salmon I’ve had when cloud cover is more than 50% and I’m eating south of the equator.”  Apparently most people do.

Because I rambled on and on, there’s more list-based ranting after the break. My face, however, stays here.

Also staying here is the note that I actually feel human again for more than a day at a time and I love it.  I know I’m back because I’m mentally strategising about how to fit an international trip into my life while still skiing, wine tasting and visiting friends on both coasts.  This is what it’s like to be me – I’d almost forgotten.

So after the break is the post that became my introductory post on WranglerForum.com.  It was long winded and absurd, and covered a lot of Jeep crap in detail that I never put on here, so I figure it can’t hurt to cross-post. I know me, and I know I’ll come here looking for the thing before there, if I end up needing to reference it eventually.  So, after the break you’ll find an absurdly-long TJ-related post.
