I’m on a mini quest this year to see if I can hear or see 365 different species of birds. Between trips to France, Costa Rica and Eastern North America I have logged 305 so far. I’m going to have to do some serious birding during the fall migrations to meet the target. But it’s not about the numbers. I love being in...
Ward Farnsworth is an old favorite around here; see my reviews of his Farnsworth’s Classical English Rhetoric (LH, The Millions) and Farnsworth’s Classical English Metaphor (LH). He has now sent me a copy of his latest magnum opus, The Latin Tamer: Mastering the Language of Rome (cowritten with Sarah van der Pas),...
Content warning: pet death. We had to say goodbye to Bruno yesterday. I can't really explain how much I'm going to miss Bruno. There's empty space that he would normally occupy.

My son is bringing his girlfriend to our house for a bit and this sort of warning will never stop being funny to me. My other son texts this as well when his girlfriend comes around. 😂 (❗Disclamier, I am not just constantly naked)

I finished A Parade of Horribles (book 8 of Dungeon Crawler Carl) on my run today. I laughed out loud when the AI said the title of this post. I’ve savored this series for the past eight months, listening to about one a month on Audible while I run. If you don’t know this series, the setup is that an alien...
I'm living all of this momentum around #RSS! Really Simple Conversations (RSC) is a great name too. 👌
