August 4, 2019 Run, It’s an Advertisement. Only a brief note this web log, I’m afraid. MBW, the HA, and I were in Washington State this weekend, visiting a couple places we’ve not been to before. A late arrival home, added to necessary chores, squeezed out the time required to scribble my usual nonsense. So,… Continue reading Run, It’s an Advertisement. Resurrected Post.

Oregon Brewer’s Festival 2019. Resurrected Post.
July 28, 2019 Oregon Brewers Festival 2019 Beauty and the Beer Beast Last year’s beer jamboree was the festival of guava and mango. That wave has receded. The new hotness (to employ an antiquated Smith-ism and indicate how old and out of touch I am) is sours. This year was heavy on sours, goses, and… Continue reading Oregon Brewer’s Festival 2019.

For the Sake of Appearances. Resurrected Post.
July 21, 2019 For the Sake of Appearances Despite my turtlelike preferences, I do appear in public from time-to-time, in the hopes of shilling my wares. This year, it seems, I’ll be poking my head out at three conventions. The most recent, tentative invitation, is for the Rose City Comic Con. I’ve been asked to… Continue reading For the Sake of Appearances. Resurrected Post.
Fore! Resurrected Post.
July 14, 2019 Fore! It is a commonplace that golf serves in multiple ways as a metaphor for life. Let me mention some of these metaphors and lessons of the links. Life is a trudge through a series of frustrations and disappointments that ultimately must end in weariness. Each shot may be likened to a… Continue reading Fore! Resurrected Post.
Appendix N in Retrospect. Resurrected Post.
July 7, 2019 Appendix N in Retrospect After this web log’s sporadic (perhaps, from your perspective, interminable) consideration of the authors listed in the Dungeon Masters Guide Appendix N, perhaps some sort of summation is required. What do I think of the list? What do I think of its application to the Dungeons and Dragons… Continue reading Appendix N in Retrospect. Resurrected Post.
Roger Zelazny, Appendix N’s Master of the Multiverse. Resurrected Post.
June 30, 2019 Roger Zelazny, Appendix N’s Master of the Multiverse As it inevitably must, this series on Appendix N reaches its end. At least we go out on a high note, with that nonpareil, Roger Zelazny. Roger Zelazny is best known for his Amber novels. Amber is the city of which all other cities are… Continue reading Roger Zelazny, Appendix N’s Master of the Multiverse. Resurrected Post.
Not Even More Too Late Movie Reviews. Resurrected Post.
June 23, 2019 Not Even More Too Late Movie Reviews. As I mentioned last week, MBW and the HA were out of town. Long-time readers of the web log (if any such creatures exist) know what that means: reviews of movies you all saw ages ago. I took some sketchy notes during my viewing, so… Continue reading Not Even More Too Late Movie Reviews. Resurrected Post.
Father’s Day/Brew Day. Resurrected Post.
June 16, 2019 Father’s Day/Brew Day MBW and the HA gave me a unique Father’s Day gift this year: quiet time. MBW drove the HA to California for a week’s visit to visit grandparents. The HA will get some camping in, MBW will get some work done. And I get a week at home of… Continue reading Father’s Day/Brew Day. Resurrected Post.
All Aboard the Comma Express. Resurrected Post.
June 9, 2019 All Aboard the Comma Express I have a tentative release schedule for Karl Thorson and the Jade Dagger of mid-November. And that means editing. What fun. That last sentence, for those of you new to this web log, was sarcasm. Editing is not, has not, and never will be fun. However, I… Continue reading All Aboard the Comma Express. Resurrected Post.
