Restaurant reviewer redux

I still have a fairly robust identity as a restaurant reviewer from the time I spent doing that at Rocket City Mom and We Are Huntsville. I did so from time to time at BoWilliams.com as well, but what got the most traction there were my hot wings reviews. However, the most recent review there … Read more

Three things to do about the election

Well, let me say three additional things. Because the first things we should do about the election are continue to love our family and friends, work hard and with integrity, live beneath our means, and so forth. If it was a good idea to do something two weeks ago, it’s still a good idea to … Read more

Election 2024

We missed something in chalk talk. Our opponent has found … Read more

Clearly I was feeling aspirational and not particularly practical when I said in my very first post on this blog: “One thing you won’t find here is overt politics, red meat or otherwise.” I’ve since written two unambiguously political posts, and a third that at least skirts the definition. Am I weak? I feel it … Read more

Hello, equinox!

The autumnal equinox is this weekend. It looks like the high will be in the low 90s, but the heat is short-lived. It’s mostly 70s for highs and 50s for lows down the rest of the 10-day forecast. Will it stay that way? Who knows? Fall and winter seem a lot less reliable today than … Read more
