Let me start by saying that I am totally in favor of election reform. I firmly believe that a proportional representation system for our legislatures, be they state or Federal, would greatly improve our democracy. Proportional representation is quite simple: Let’s say you’re electing a 100 member legislature, divided between 10 districts, each with 10 […]
I enjoy visiting museums, historical sites and significant buildings. It’s odd that in 4 years living in Seattle, I have not, until today, taken in our state capitol, a mere 80 miles or so south in the city of Olympia. In a word, it was “quaint”. Part Two of my adventure today was far more […]
It’s December. I can’t help but think ahead. In two weeks, I’ll have my drivers license back, insurance and a dependable vehicle in which to travel. See, before my life changed 20 months ago, road trips, making videos and exploring the world were my favorite things to do. Few if any of you reading this […]

I discussed in a recent blog the remarkable sequence of synchronicities that lead me to renting my latest apartment. I’m a believer in determinism (with a theistic bent), and am constantly looking for signs which indicate that I am, indeed, on the life path that I am intended to be on. As one who believes […]
I stared at the notice in disbelief. Eviction. All residents at our unit must vacate these premises by January 31st. Huh? What is this? It had to be some sort of mistake. I just got here! It’s been only three months. There haven’t been any complaints. We’ve paid our rent on time. What the heck […]
