It’s one thing when an adult calls one other adult, “Baby.”
But it’s a whole other can of bean curd when an adult calls one other adult, “Babies.”
“What’s happening, Babies?” he said to one other adult. And all hell … Read on Macduff...
Virtual LP: Wallabees Are Back
A crazy long time ago, one of my brothers gave me lyrics to a song about Clark-brand Wallabees. Wallabees were the preferred shoe-wear of Vortices in the ’70s. Their return to the scene had upset him. I set those words … Read on Macduff...
Happy Crazy-Clown-Wig-Hat Day

So, OK, he’s pro-hippie now. We’ve … Read on Macduff...
Comparing Compressor Recipes for Vimeo and YouTube

New Movie: A Visit to the Olive Operation
I posted a different kind of movie (for me) over the weekend — a 4 minute micro-documentary in which my buddy Joel and I get a tour of our pal Kirk’s chicken house followed by a look at how Kirk … Read on Macduff...

So, for example, if I made toast, to which I wouldn’t normally add Tabasco, that wouldn’t count as cooking. (Or … Read on Macduff...
