Wow. There has been quite a lot going on and I have posted virtually nothing on any of my blogs in a while. This silence, this pause in writing, is really starting to bug me; you’ll see more blog posts and other activity in the near future.
For now, however, there will be a […]
PLEASE NOTE: These instructions were written on Sunday, January 27, 2008; it is all still quite relevant, I can assure you, as these are merely instructions — not date-sensitive content.
If you are new to blogs, here are some basic things to know that will truly enrich your experience. Awareness of this info will help […]
Warning: this post is an exercise in verbosity.
A few days ago, I started to wonder whether I should topically compartmentalize my posts (that is, according to subject) from now on. Until now, I usually wrote only one post every few days, but I might cover a range of themes within that post: the hilarity […]

Big Al!
I have been writing so much lately, and there are no signs of a slowdown.
Around 2:15 this afternoon I received a call from a friend in Atlanta: Fred “Lawyer Fred” Bauerlein. I was pleased enough to converse with Fred Bauerlein in the first place, but when he mentioned the possibility of hiring me […]
Once again, Nashville has narrowly escaped a minor winter storm. Boo! The edge of the frozen precipitation was just north and east of Nashville around 6 this morning, and it’s getting warmer. Looks like it will be wet all day, which means little or no landscape maintenance activity, but probably a few hours […]
The topic du jour, spawned by today’s viewing of the gritty Christian Bale movie Harsh Times, is movies. Movies, movies, movies: what I like in movies, movies I am looking forward to in 2008, movies with a 2009 release date I am looking forward to, why Christian Bale became one of my favorite actors […]

I’m going to attack my punch list today and get some things accomplished. I’ll rant, too.
One of the most memorable religious convictions uttered to me during 2007 was a friend’s explanation about why he worshiped on Saturdays, and why most Christians were flat out wrong and going against God’s will by worshiping on Sundays. […]
The Evolution of a Plumping Routine
I find it difficult to describe the sentiments and yearnings I had for my nightly ice cream engorgement, a practice that seemed to become instinctual. The blame now rests where it should: perched squarely atop the institutional shoulders of Ben, Jerry, Haagen, and Dazs.

I’ve had a great time with my ADHD the last few hours; my research got sidetracked, then that sidetrack veered off into something else, et al.
I started out installing a new WordPress blog for Nashville Landscapes (a great Nashville landscaping site). WordPress blog installation for me means hours of searching for great WordPress themes. […]
