Handwriting and geeks
Since sometime during my tenure at RHIT, I have mostly used block letters when I write. Lately I have been working on making my handwriting more efficient, especially since I have come to loathe it. The key is to use … Continue reading

Travesty International
[This already long post would have been much longer, but the manager of my household thought that I was finished with it before I really was, and disposed of the offending desk litter quite efficiently. So, here is about half … Continue reading

I’ve Been Working on the Railroad
Since a quarter to 5:00 AM this morning. But we’re done now. So I’m going home. But I’ve added one more experience to my repertoire: driving rail spikes. It gets old quickly, let me tell you. OK, I love you … Continue reading
