Weird Photography
My brother in law asked (because he’s a better photographer than I am): What kind of photography I would like to get into? My response was weird stuff. I’d like to take tiny slices of life from the 21st century and leave them to the world. If they survive like the pot sherds of the…

Traveling
Beach or mountains? Which do you prefer? Why? I don’t ever get to travel at this point in my life except occasionally to my parents’ cottage on a lake half an hour away. So I have a little bit of beach for as much as I want it. I’ve also been to both oceans, so…

Family Meals
What are your family’s top 3 favorite meals? One of the things I miss more than most about my childhood is that Dad, Mom, my sisters, and I would sit together for a family meal almost every evening. It is a tradition that my wife and I were simply not able to maintain. Between autism…

Stress and Homeless Men
More people have visited today than usual. My parents are stressful, I love them dearly and it’s good stress, but stressful nonetheless. They brought food so one of my two sons came for lunch. Now I have my regular homeless friend at the table and another homeless man he just met. Gods help me. Oh…

Unpopular Opinion: Pictures
I don’t know why people work so hard to make paintings and drawings look like photographs. Photography is a perfectly sound art form. Imitating it seems unproductive and a general waste of time. If I want art that looks like a photo, then I’m just going to take a photo. If I’m going to make…

The Spring Months
What’s your favorite month of the year? Why? I don’t think I have a favorite month per se. I prefer spring to the other seasons so in any given year it is likely that I will prefer April or May the most. Of those two my preference will likely fall on may because of Easter…

A Chinese Restaurant
What is your favorite place to go in your city? One of the things that our city boasts is that we have the second oldest continuously running Chinese restaurant in the United States. It is amazing food, and while I don’t want to eat Chinese restaurant food every day, it is certainly a good treat.…
