Stuff I think about
In a comment on someone else’s blog, I (very) recently mentioned my physics professor from college. I say that in the singular form because it was a small college and the Physics department was tiny. Including the department head, I…
This is, somewhat, the continuation of My History With Anime as promised. As I’d mentioned, I started to read quite a few LNs (Light Novels). Some, I’ve started because I saw the anime and wanted to read the source material….
Where It Started I don’t exactly try to hide that I am a … somewhat avid? … consumer of certain types of Japanese fiction in various forms. This started decades ago with anime. And even that started first with the…
A while back, I had posted about how I was seriously hyped about purchasing and importing a Japanese Nissan 300ZX. The car arrived two weeks ago (just about literally). Two days after it arrived, much to my surprise, it made…

Yes, it’s that time again. Rather than going through with what I’ve started / dropped, though, let me just talk about the stuff that I’m pretty sure I’m watching for this season. But First … a micro-Rant Before I jump…
The “It” in this case being, finally, my Mac Mini. It’s been a couple of weeks since I last mentioned this (in Computer Restituo Interruptus … or not?). The reality of what happened after that post is that the computer…
