Critical Mass Miami

I never did get around to embedding this video, did I?
I took my bike to Miami with me over the holidays and rode in their Critical Mass ride the day after Christmas. It starts downtown at a roughly equivalent location in the city to Atlanta’s Woodruff Park, but the Midtown, VaHi, L5P and […]

2008 in pictures

I hate a bad internet meme, but I love a good one, and Amber and Rusty have a good one. I was hoping to pick one picture per month and hit all twelve, but with 4 minutes left in the year, I’m going to just be a bit haphazard, especially since some of the […]

Thanksgiving in pictures

Still too brain-fried to write, but at least I have that spiffy camera-phone. Here’s just a bit of my Thanksgiving dinner. (Next year, I hope to be shooting widescreen video of Thanksgiving on the new OMGEATITiPhone Nokia N97. But for now, nice pictures.)

Science is hard

It’s true; most scientists agree science is hard. I know this all too well first hand.
But that doesn’t mean you can mock and ignore it and still lead the free world. There are too many important decisions that rely on a healthy appreciate for and understanding of man’s ability to shape the world […]

Whither a Divided America?

Last weekend I was feeling election fatigued — even partisanship fatigued.
