Hey, so with the help of this awesome plugin FAlbum by Elijah Cornell, all the photos I upload to my flickr account now show on this blog, too. What’s up, data portability?
This is my photo section, these are my favorite photos, this is a tag cloud of the words I’ve used to describe my photos, […]

Okay, so I’m still a noob with all the snowboard lingo, but this I know: I stuck / bombed / went down my first black diamond run last week. It was the Last Hoot run at Keystone, and I carved the heck outta all but one really steep part of it. Awesome, right? Sure.
My friends […]

So, last night (Sunday) I announced the launch of HappyJournalist on my online journalism blog. The site’s a response to the AngryJournalist confessional, and so far, so good — 24 people have said what makes them happy, and hey, Gawker picked it up too.

This month is poetry month (among other things that are being celebrated all month long I’m sure). This month I found a book of Robert Bly’s poetry. I found Robert Bly through this fascinating lit mag from North Carolina called The Sun, which came to me via Sarah. So yeah, I found the book, which […]

The hand brushed past my radar in the newsroom in Winston-Salem, it was clever, and then I forgot about it. For some reason it struck my memory tonight.
The Order of the Occult Hand has no president, board, or member roll. It’s existed for more than 40 years. I haven’t joined, and odds are against […]

First, I didn’t know Williams. I’m not religious about football. The guy died 150 feet from where I live, and I guess that makes me feel weird / closer to his passing. Here are some of the things I’ve noticed since his death:

Tonight I launched Joe Think, my blog about how local journalism can use the internet to be awesome and relevant. It’s something I meant to do a while ago, but ya’ know, stuff comes up. Stuff is still coming up, sure. But I needed a better home for my work-related rants and thoughts and ideas […]
