The Year of Brian?
Well, it sounds better than The Weekend of Brian, right? That’s what it seems to be, however. Fri/Sat, I got yet another much needed break and visited Justin’s family at the Chesapeake. We had dinner at Stoney’s (oh those crab...

B. Smith’s Sunday Brunch: I’m still stuffed!
The first time I ever walked into B. Smith’s DC restaurant, I was still working at US PIRG and living the life of a poor non-profit worker. I had heard of B. Smith, and only just learned she had a...
Random Roundup
It’s so pretty. The Alex Ross cover for the upcoming Heroes graphic novel coming out on November 7. Half the books will print with the Alex Ross cover, half with a cover by Jim Lee. I might have to pick...

I’m bi again!
Well bi-platform, anyway. Marvin’s (the mac mini) done been hooked up and he’s working just as well as he did before. The “Apple Genius” did an archived install, which seems to have preserved all of my settings and files, etc....
The romantic spirit of living in the city
