True, I'm not updating this much anymore (I don't seem to have the impulsive gene required for bloggin), but at least I'm offering useful info like, say, how the universe was created. And c'mon, wouldn't you rather have that than another warmed-over journal entry?

February Thaw

2008-02-25T07:58:00.000-08:00

It finally got warmish enough (hey, above freezing!) to get outside for more than a few minutes. So I checked out a little Mississippi River action near downtown Minneapolis and took some fancy pictures, like this: Otherwise I can report that not having a job in the winter in Minnesota can make for some longish days in the house... but hopefully both the job and winter situations will change

Minnesota: Nice

2007-10-30T12:15:00.000-07:00

Well, it's been around two months, so I think I'll do the "here I am back in Minnesota" post. After leaving for Austin in 1994, I don't know how much I expected to ever return, but times and circumstances change, as we know. So with 4 nephews and 1 niece appearing in the last two years, and a general feeling of stagnation with things in Austin, this seemed to be the time.It's definitely been

Moving: The Scorecard

2007-08-31T09:07:00.001-07:00

For anyone keeping track, we have made the move to Minneapolis from Austin. Hopefully the fun part starts now, as the last week or so have been filled with a few hassles:- packing and cleaning, as everyone knows, are among the least enjoyable tasks of life - next time I'm just buying matches and lighter fluid- though they did pretty well, driving for two days with 3 dogs behind the seat of a

The Last

2007-08-09T06:55:00.000-07:00

After just over 12 years at UT Austin, today is my last day of work. The house has a contract, and we're entering into "the last" stage - the last time we do this in Austin, the last time we visit that. Or at least that's how it feels, though I have every intention of making it back here fairly frequently. I think the next few weeks will keep me stressed out enough that I may not notice my

The Foie Gras Wars

2007-07-14T10:39:00.000-07:00

I guess blogs are the place to put thoughts that don't have any better outlet, so here goes. There's a moron criminal in Austin vandalizing restaurants that serve foie gras or veal, and then putting the pictures on a web site, even. I'm a meat eater, and have had foie gras maybe 6 times in my life, and sorry spray painters, but it really is that good. We're also friends of the owners/chefs at

After what seems to have been a ridiculously long build-up, hopefully Roger and I will finally have our house listed this week (and hey, it's really nice, you should totally buy it!), and the big moving process can actually start to happen (unless writing about it somehow is another jinx, of course...).To give some context, my oldest niece just turned 2, and my oldest nephew will be 1 in a few

Wee Liam

I suppose a better uncle would have mentioned this much earlier, but I wanted to give little Liam some time to get settled. He did make his debut a couple months early, after all. But now he's on his game and his progress can be tracked online, just like if he was a package. The routing number is "awwwwwww."Hurray for Tom and Becky too!

I'm not sure how many more "oh my god I can't believe someone figured out how to do this" music web sites we're going to end up with, but the latest is Critical Metrics. Combining the references of something like Metacritic with the tunez of stuff like The Hype Machine, it's yet another excellent stop on the path to the New and Good.And speaking of Hype, that site has also added a nifty "radio"

God Debate: Sam Harris vs. Rick Warren - Newsweek/MSNBC.comI suppose this debate will find both sides claiming victory, but Harris certainly has his talking points down cold. And I do wish Warren had more to say about the urges behind altruism - honestly, is it only fear of hell that produces any care for other people? Anyway, the big line for me was from Harris: "I don't want to pretend to be

Party With Me, Punkers

2007-03-21T17:33:00.000-07:00

Life as an unconnected Day Partier at SXSW can be fickle – if I can get in to a party, then so can anybody else (it's the quantity of them that bothers me, not the quality) – but the price is right. Wednesday was rainy so I ditched my initial plans and caught Ghostland Observatory at the KEXP broadcast, and while they were more subdued than their truly amazing performance at the Austin City

The internet continues to make music obsessing easier and faster - now only if it provided an income I'd be set. Those adopting mp3 blogs as the 21st century's radio (and who own Macs) should check out Peel, an iTunes lookalike that will grab songs and blog pages while you steam your milk or whatnot. If you like what you hear, click one thing to download and another to add it to your iTunes.

Between proscrastination and absent-mindedness, 3-day passes for this year's ACL festival were gone before I thought about buying one, but I also think I'm now more comfortable in the "one big day" role vs. the three-day marathoners. Let's say I'm more of a sprinter. Or a power-walker, perhaps. All that stamina - who even wants it? So Saturday was it for me.I forgot to check the batteries in

Still, he does treat us to sentences like "The man slid soundlessly to the ground, a round hole in his forehead from which the blood bubbled and ran

Things got off to a friendly start as the first person I ended up standing in line with was GreenCine Daily's David Hudson, without peer in the movie-news-gathering biz. So while I'm normally not so into the time-killing "so what are you excited about" sort of line chit-chat,

KISS KISS, BANG BANG

2005-10-21T05:01:00.000-07:00

The Austin Film Festival started off with a BANG BANG - Shane Black has been a visitor to the screenwriter's conference for years, and as he himself stated, "Finally I'm good for something besides drinking in the Driskill bar." After spending quite a while coasting (spiraling?) down from his LETHAL WEAPON notoriety, it appears he got the chance to put every joke, set piece, trick and genre twist

I'm sure it's too late to jump into the post-hurricane fray much, except to say how ill-prepared I would be if one ever actually came close to Austin. Though maybe it's a good thing that I can look around my house and not really see much of anything I couldn't live without.Unfortunately, scares from Rita kept Roger from accompanying me to my cousin's wedding in Cincinnati. As this was the third

Tarantino Comes To Town

2005-09-17T09:28:00.000-07:00

I've helped out a couple nights at the 6th Quentin Tarantino Film Festival here at the Alamo Drafthouse, but so far the crowd sizes (and late starting times) have prevented me from catching many of the movies. I was able to watch FUNERAL HOME, and bits and pieces of PSYCHO II and CRACK HOUSE. But without a comfy chair, the appeal of such movies is greatly reduced, especially at 2 AM. Usually

Why gay marriage matters

2005-08-08T08:58:00.000-07:00

You can read elsewhere about the history of marriage, its meaning in society, and certainly much hand-wringing about "tradition." I'm going to tell you about how it would make my life easier.Roger and I are, in every sense but legal, already married. We've lived together for over 6 years, bought a house together in 2001, had a commitment ceremony in 2003, eat dinner together, sleep in the same

Fortunately this has almost become a regular summer treat - SINGIN' IN THE RAIN at the Paramount Theatre.

Imagine if the people making every movie worked and worked until they had designed every moment of every scene to

All right, I know it should be no surprise by now (Texas? Hot? Huh??), but this summer is beating me down. 98, 97, 95, 104, 104, 99, and 101 are all good prices for a hamburger, but as daily high temperatures they are not so appealing. And I'm trying to suck it up, but there's still like two more months of this to go. Wah.Oh well, good weather for staying home in the dark, or going to movie

BILLY LIAR

2005-07-01T16:05:00.000-07:00

On my to-view list for quite a while, I finally got the chance to see BILLY LIAR [1963] in a theatre, and it did not disappoint. Habitual dreamers (and cowards) beware, however: this may hit too close to home. Possibly the quintessential illustration of both the reasons some choose to retreat into fantasy, and the gut-wrenching consequences for never returning to the real world, I know the
