"I Am *Not* Impressed!"

Every Librarian's Secret Fantasy (Er, Not That Kind of Fantasy)

We did a day trip across the border to Williston, North Dakota on Wednesday (it's a long story as to why we had to go mid-week, I'll tell you over a beer sometime) and the highlight for me was finding an old department store that had been converted into a place that sold all kinds […]

Eulogy For Grandma Hammond

Since I've got a bit of a morbid theme going, I thought I'd post another eulogy – this one was for my Grandma Hammond who passed away a few years ago.

Eulogy For Grandpa Peet

(I mentioned a couple weeks ago that this eulogy had gone over very well and that I would post it when time allowed. A long weekend is ideal for catching up on all those loose ends and so here it is…)

Link Dump Redux

So after saying a couple entries ago that I never do link dump posts, here I am doing another one.  Maybe I should give in and make this a recurring feature on the blog, just like the Friday Fun Links?  Heck, I could have a whole week's worth of features and never have to come […]
