Backpackers are a common site in the neighborhood, which is home to no fewer than four hostels, but on June 24th we’ll also see tents and campfires. The Park’s Department is sponsoring one night of “night hikes, s’more making, campfire games and wildlife searches.” The Great Hill, which is reached by a healthy […]
I neglected to mention that, in addition to eating barbecue, I tagged along with a walking tour of our neighborhood on my birthday. I didn’t take notes or take pictures but it helped shore up a lot of my theories and hypotheses about the neighborhood (more on that later). The most topical issue […]
This is the view that greets comers to and from the Detroit Metropolitan Airport:
I’ve spent the last week mostly recovering from my previous crazy-busy birthday week (during which both Lizz and the Beast were in Florida). A quick review:
DrupalCamp weekend was a blast. I learned a lot and met some great folks. Thanks to Noel for putting it all together and Brooklyn Polytechnic for hosting. […]

I’m not the biggest fan of Hillary Clinton but she just did make a politically brilliant move (via Sat. She’s introduced a bill to increase the minimum wage and minimum wage increases to congressional pay increases. Why is this smart:
Minimum wage increases are popular even in red states (Florida passed a minimum wage […]
I’m finally starting to wade into the land of all things Drupal/CiviCRM at “the job” and also for some side projects (one which I hope we’ll have ready soon!). For those not in the know, Drupal is a platform on which to build community and other highly interactive web sites (blogs, portals, directories, forums, […]
The last two days I’ve used two basic math equations for a practical purpose — so all you middle schoolers out there, this stuff does eventually come in handy. Really.
