I’m so unique!
HowManyOfMe.com There are: 0 people with my name in the U.S.A. How many have your name? That’s for my real name. I get the same results for my nom de plume. I wonder what it means …

My Political Compass
Link here. Economic Left/Right: -2.63 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.00 I’m not sure I buy it. I think I’m further to the economic right than this though the libertarian/authoritarian axis is probably about right. Of course, trying to express complex political viewpoints on even two axes is vastly undersimplifying …

The Maltese Falcon, part II
I just got through watching the 1931 Maltese Falcon that I referred to yesteray. (Yes it is the middle of the day – I’m working from home and decided to take a break. I am so working!) It’s OK, but is clearly not the film the 1941 movie is. The acting is not as strong…

The Maltese Falcon
I just got through watching The Maltese Falcon with Mrs. C. What a great movie! Bogart really was a great actor and this is such a great role. He’s funny, sincere, tough, emotional – you name it. He’s convincing, and a blast to watch. The movie is just so well made too. The end took…

Losing Steam

Another Change in Look
Yes, my second in two days! I really just couldn’t get past the fixed page width of the other theme! It looked so cramped! And the font was a little big. It just wasn’t right. But I liked the header, so I brought it here. Not quite as impressive, but not so bad either. Anyway,…

On HIV Denial
I did something very interesting yesterday. I posted a comment on Tara Smith’s Aetiology in response to an HIV denier. He was making some comments that just didn’t track with everything I’ve learned about HIV, so I thought I’d try to address some of his misconceptions. Big mistake. Boy did I get flamed. I don’t…

Traffic increase!
Wow! I’ve had a traffic surge over the last couple of days because of my new look and because of my post on Aetiology. So welcome Aetiology readers and other WordPress folks! Please look around; I hope you find something interesting. For those coming from Aetiology, Michael brought up one good point: I know squat…
