You know those Starbucks Frappuccino things you can buy in the little glass bottles at the gas station? Don’t get those. You can get the same dopamine hit without having to look at the Starbucks logo. You need some Bustelo instant espresso, some kind of milk, a caramel sauce or syrup, and water. Bustelo instant […]

This is less of a recipe and more of a method. Eggs and tortillas are great together, and I like to actually just cook them as a unit. Hot sauce, cheese, chiles, or anything you want can go on them. Fold it like a taco or use a knife and fork. It’s also great for […]

I didn’t really know what I wanted to do with it–or with the songs–but I wanted to try something different. I wanted to publish the groundwork rather than waiting until […]

Today I pulled together some loosely connected thoughts I’ve been sorting out. I’m working on a print publication–for now things will get posted here. I’m writing a lot, but mostly I do my editing on People’s Plaza, in the cold, on limited battery power, etc., behind the Teach-In booth. It’s an experiment. I’m acutely aware […]

About a month ago, my computer got infected with the insanely messy Windows Vista Recovery virus. This is partly my fault for being really lazy about virus protection and updates. I hate anti-virus programs. They slow the computer down. Windows alone loads up your computer with all kinds of Microsoft crap and just on startup […]
