Those who know the longer-tailed story of Cate Carter's fixation on me over the past fifteen years or so sometimes ask at what point things with her crossed over from annoying to dangerous, and I usually cite November 18, 2008. This was the day ... read more

about me
I optimize Macs and teach people to use them. I'm a Macintosh computer consultant specializing in small businesses and integration. I help make sure that the hardware, software, people and business processes all get along. Increase pleasure, decrease frustration and improve productivity through smarter computing. If a computer doesn't improve your life, something needs to change.

When I was a boy, all the people of all the nations which had fought in the First World War were silent during the eleventh minute of the eleventh hour of Armistice Day, which was the eleventh day of the eleventh month. It was during that minute in nineteen hundred and eighteen, that millions upon millions of human beings stopped butchering one and another.... read more Labor Day this year shall probably see more people brushing up their resumes than camping by the lake and barbecuing hot dogs at home, rather than steak, but it is a terrific opportunity to consider all the many great things that organized labor and its allies have brought our culture through the years. "The people who brought you the weekend" have done much to improve our lives for over a hundred years, including such astonishing things and humane ideas as - Minimum wage laws - Industr... read more I am normally not much for the gossiptainment complex which passes for news in 24-hour cable culture, but the story of Jaycee Lee Dugard has captured my attention, and I hope that I might have something worthwhile to say about this horrendous and bizarre crime in which an eleven-year-old girl was snatched outside her home and held for eighteen years by a convicted sex offender, who fathered two children upon her and kept the entire family in a small backyard compound. Not since the incestuo... read more
