It’s been a bit of a down week, for me. Some professional disappointments, a family loss. I like to think I never take my Patron […]
In six days, I strap a duck onto my bike helmet, and hit Bike the barns – possibly better known, to my readers, as Insane Charity Bike Ride 2019. Bike the Barns helps the FairShare CSA Coalition bring fresh, organic food from Dane County, WI, farms to low-income families in the Madison area. It’s an amazing local charity, helping farmers as […]

I’m in Tuscany, trying to BE COOL ABOUT IT, for one of my very favorite shows in the entire world: Lucca Comics and Games. The moment I was dropped off at my magnificent hotel, I made a bee-line for Pizza Da Felice – absolutely one of the most magnificent slices I’ve ever had. I forget […]

In five days time, I get on my bike, strap a duck to my head, and tackle Bike the Barns, with a few hundred other folks, raising money for the Fair Share Coalition! There is still time to donate to Insane Charity Bike Ride 2018, though! The amount of swag you gan get for even […]
Here we go AGAIN, guys! Insane Charity Bike Ride 2018 is two months away. I need to get training! Also: I need your help! The Bike the Barns ride (what normal people call “Insane Charity Bike Ride”) helps Madison’s FairShare CSA Coalition bring fresh food from local farms to low-income families in the Madison area.

“Where’s John?” UK GAMES EXPO EDITION: I’ll be in Birmingham, England’s NEC this weekend. I believe I can be found at Booth #1-D18.
