Nothing left but the PTSD

So one of the things that didn't come up in the year I haven't been posting here is the big work stuff. Still at Harvard, hit my 5 year anniversary back in January. As a part of being here, I've picked up a huge chunk of curriculum management stuff. Definitely not in the usual domain for an

Who we were is not who we are

A few days ago I found out that my old high school singing group was having a 50th anniversary event. (See https://news.yahoo.com/ledyard-carolers-embark-50th-season-013500733.html for a local news bit).

The first CD I bought (not the first music I bought, or the first CD I owned), back in the early 90s, was Banba by a group called Clannad. I'd heard some things about them, seen a recent VW ad featuring them, and it had this cool cover and a track from the recent Last of the Mohicans film.

SCA Post

Two years ago, I took what looked like modest steps in the SCA that turned out to be the first steps in a long, long road.

I found a woodcut image today while poking around for other things, and shared it with a few people. Based on those conversations I made a thing. I present to you Oopsie, the Thrower. The unofficial mascot of the SCA Thrown Weapons community. You can find Oopsie in a ready to wear form

Many of you know that I've been involved with a local con-running group for a very long time. For a number of years I've been the treasurer. So it isn't uncommon for me to get emails talking about money and payments and whatnot. I got one today, ostensibly from the current President
