I crashed out at Juliet’s, in her guest room. I had the luxury of sleeping in and, on waking, came across the collected poems of Bill Matthews – which was a lovely way to while away a bit of time. Everybody needs an apple a day. I realized, right before I left, that I hadn’t…
3:00AM. This is the attic in Mike’s place, where most of the rehearsals took place. We hauled all the equipment up here, and I stopped to take a few shots of the place. Not an overly spacious area, but perfect for a few guys to get together and make music. Mike’s done an awesome job…
Andyman’s Treehouse. This venue is tucked away between some industrial-looking buildings in Grandview. It’s remarkably close to the first apartment complex I lived in, and time has done nothing to help me remember where this place is. As far as I can recall, I was only ever been here once (most of our drinking took…
Juliet got off of work around 5PM, and we all hung out at her place for a bit. We ordered a pizza, and she ended up making a fruit smoothie that we split. Nerd that I am, I ended up taking a lot of video and pictures of the whole process. Now, some days after…
Stopped in to Columbus Percussion, so Matt could pick up a few things prior to the show. I spoke with a few of the folks behind the counter, and they were cool with me taking pictures inside the store. I had no idea there were this many different types of sticks. One of the things…
Matt and I stopped by the famous Taco Ninja, hoping to grab some grub… but unfortunately, the place was closed. The actual restaurant is housed inside a bar, and this is the resplendent entryway. Ninjas don’t need fancy signage – they just need a dark doorway to sneak into! So instead, we head to one…
Starting 1:30 PM EST, I’m in Cowtown, here to check out a band my friends Matt and Mike are in: Cropchecker. If you’re in Columbus, and would like to hear some tunes, swing on by Andyman’s Treehouse tonight. And that offer still stands: if you find me, come on up and I’ll buy you a…
Around 7:00 PM Chris and I drove out to the burbs, and entered in a poker tournament with some of Ben’s friends from church. $10 buy-in, and I walked into the thing fairly cocky, thinking I’d do pretty well. Fast forward ninety minutes, and I get knocked out about halfway. Chris holds on a bit…

Ok. So get this. Going over the list of recent referrers today… I come across a link to The HearingTrumpet, a radio show that’s broadcast onCKUT, 90.3 FM (a non-profit campus communityradio station in Montreal). They came across the pi10k experiment,and ended up including a fair amount of it on their hour-long show. And check…

From: AnnTo: FelixSubj: golly Hey, Listen, sister, youíre not mad I called you a dork, are you? Come on, I didnít even make fun of the Annie reference… Just be glad I didnít type a whole page of “Ann is bored. Ann is bored.” a la The Shining, which, on a night like tonight, Iím…
From: AnnTo: FelixSubj: misc. Felix, Now sorry I have been so remiss in the quick response department. The quarter just started, so thereís been syllabus writing, arguing with the library reserves people, students clamoring to get in my class because the other instructors are on crack… blah, blah, blah. Actually, one of the other instructors…
I had a pretty decent day at work today. Got a lot done, and I had planned on spending tonight trying to work more on Stu’s new website. On top of that, I had a decent idea for a poem, and wanted to try to scribble for a little bit, before I settled down to…
My friend Juliet runs a blog called The Daily Apple. There, she researches topics that interest her, writes up a synopsis and provides links to additionl sources of info. A site filled with “little nuggets of information.” Currently, she’s got an open call for anyone to submit potential topics. Did I mention that Juliet has…
