One Cannot Say Enough Wretched Things About Airports
I feel the need to underscore this point, particularly now, because Vortices of Doom begin at airports, I believe, and Cyclones of Cataclysm end with them. Writing a blog SUCKS when you’ve been doing it for years just to keep…

Just Bring On the Asteroid, Already
Apparently, several hundred “books” written entirely by some chatty Chinese Artificial Intelligence computer program are currently listed as being for sale to consumers on Amazon. Figures. Forget talent, craft, personal ingenuity, originality, the quest for ideas, and the effort required…
