I should be in Hannover, right now, getting ready for the big 20th anniversary party of Hannover Spielt. Unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate. Most of yesterday afternoon was spent at Dane County Regional Airport, watching the weather reports from Minneapolis and Detroit. It made for fine television, really. Much better than watching cable news […]
First off: HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my wonderful Mother, who really is quite remarkable. (Her only real fault is having a birthday that falls on Tax Day here in the United States, but I blame that on the US government, which switched the day several decades ago.) Secondly: despite the danger of this blog turn […]

HOLY. FRACK. YOU PEOPLE! The one-hour Flash Charity drive for the water tanks for the Haitian orphanage raised the the $700 needed…IN UNDER TEN MINUTES! By the end of it all, all the levels were sold out, we and we raised somewhere between $2,000 and $2,300 for the orphanage. The cool thing about this? […]
My friend Michael Webb is one of the finest people I know. Seriously. This is one very, very good human being. The sort of person we all wish we were, particularly when you wake up hung-over. Not that this has ever happened to me. Ever. A good friend of Michael’s runs an orphanage in Haiti. […]
