  • Solar Powered Garbage Cans

    On my YouTube channel I have a goal in July to post a new song every day for the month. It started the other day with an ode to the first “date” I had with the woman who would be my wife. I call it a “date” because it was really just a re-connecting after…

    Reuters…  A digital video disc player was found in the Tesla car that was on autopilot when its driver was killed in a collision with a truck in May, Florida Highway Patrol officials said on Friday. … A lawyer for a truck driver involved in the accident with the Tesla told Reuters his investigators had…

  • Sun Thru Tree

    Sitting at the Morton Arboretum on Saturday for their Craft Beer Festival, and not surprisingly, there were trees. This is where we sat. It was nice.

  • Why Do I Have These Pictures?

    When I win the lottery I think one of my projects will be to finally sit down for about a week or two and organize all of my pictures. I guess I don’t really know why because, really, one hundred years from now who will be looking at any of them, but I have a…

  • I’m All In and Will Take Credit for a Cavs Championship

    I’m “All In.” That’s right, it’s time, but I just hope I don’t curse the Cleveland Cavs Championship by being “all in” for the last game of the championship series. See, I’m originally from the Cleveland area, spending my formative years in the city of Lorain, Ohio, about 25 minutes from downtown Cleveland. Back then…

Here’s a quick rundown of what the women of Litchfield (and a couple of guys) got up to last year, in a season defined by explorations…

  • Walking the Dog is Peaceful, Sometimes

    There’s a lake where I walk Milo. It has ducks. And sunsets. Happily Milo doesn’t attack ducks when I’m walking the dog.

  • Parked Car Notifications

    Macrumors… Once in the Maps app, a small Parked Car icon appears where you left your car, and a separate sheet can be filled out to add details like a photo of the car’s location and even a text note to jot down a description of the area or level of the parking garage you…

  • Maybe No One Likes French Food Any Longer?

    Yahoo News… The Osteria Francescana in Modena in the north of the country — which was praised for its use of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese — pipped last year’s winner, Spain’s El Celler de Can Roca, to top the World’s 50 Best Restaurants list, after coming second in 2015. Congrats Chef Massimo Bottura! But even as Bottura…

  • Get a Job – A Review

    Entertainment Ave!… “Get a Job” is a nice, little movie, but gets a little too mixed up between trying to decide if it wants to be an all-out comedy, like a “Superbad” or “American Pie” for the millennials, or a somewhat more serious movie about the challenges the millennials will be facing as they begin…
