I have been working on Grim Metal Bedlam almost daily for the last few weeks and writing in my journals ideas of how to approach primordial maximum. So I have been relativly productive over all in the grand scheme of the apocalypse.I have a fascination with mork Borg and my favorite ruleset for miniatures skirmish...
Not every Fringe experience needs to be a political epic or a formally adventurous piece of devised theatre.Part of what makes Edinburgh unique is the sheer variety of performance on offer.

I brought my big honking Pentax 645 to a car show recently. The only lens I own for it, the 75mm f/2.8 SMC Pentax-A 645, was mounted, and I had spooled some Ilford HP5 Plus inside. I shot two rolls, actually; here are the shots I liked best from the first roll. I’ll share photos from the second roll after I develop...
My Dad, Harold D. Burk (1909-1978), passed away in the Bronx, New York, OTD in 1978. He was five weeks from his 70th birthday. I've added Dad to Find a Grave here with a bite-sized bio, noting his service in the US Army during World War II. The shadowbox frame above holds his military memorabilia, organized and...
