As part of my birthday festivities, I got some friends to come along and help me set up a free tarot reading table in Davis Square. On a Sunday afternoon, this area has a reasonable amount of foot traffic. Yet, unlike the Harvard Square pedestrians, ...
Ah, Art. Ah, New York City. NYC is a veritable cauldron of seething humanity, and since there is no art without human agency, the city is a great place to go for an artistic retreat. We spent the weekend mostly taking in bits of Central Park and the ...
I quickly realized that I'd have to use my username for anagramming raw material, since "rongo rongo" has very few anagrams. Pleasingly enough, the photo caption anagram for the physical representation describes both my player photograph an...
During the Revolutionary War, the colonists had four brass cannons (which they had stolen from the Loyalist led local artillery company). Two were captured by the British during the war, but the other two have survived to this day and are displayed a...

The one issue I have with Boston is that there is no nearby Arby's. (And yet, there are usually at least three Dunkin Donuts visible from any given point.) So I declared a plan to visit to the nearest Arby's and dress inappropriately. Look at the pic...
I decided to walk 25 miles in someone else's shoes, mostly along a nice flat grade rail trail that I've bike along many time but never walked. My friend, Moussie, came along for company (because he'd never walked that far at once either and is always...
