Rika’s Art

I talk about my wife, Rika, a lot. I think it annoys some people and amuses others. But why shouldn’t I talk about here a lot? After almost seven years of marriage I’m still giddy to be around here. Recently she’s been working on her own projects, that she writes about on her own website. … More Rika’s Art

Grumpy Bird Reviews: Iron Fist s01e11: Lead Horse Back to Stable

I kept wondering that if this were episode 2 or 3 instead of episode 11, would I be getting more out of it. Maybe I would be able to focus on the little mysteries instead of all the missed opportunities. Maybe.

Spread that Blame!

Woohoo! Another little political rant! just the kind of thing that everyone loves to read. As long as they agree with it. Especially when it comes from some unknown character who can be accused of living outside the country for over a decade and therefore has little accurate experience as to what it means to live in … More Spread that Blame!

Today I Won At Parenting

Before I come off like too much of a jerk, let me just clarify that title. I don’t mean “I won” as in “I’m the best.” How would something like that even be graded? But every parent knows that there are days when the job just gets the better of them. I’ve only been at … More Today I Won At Parenting

Little Man Sleeping

Today was a day. Nothing extraordinarily tiring or anything, but at the end of the day I just felt weary. If anything, the day was long. I get home with enough time to sit long enough for the tiredness to creep forth. The Mrs. and the little one arrive. He gets to play. She decides … More Little Man Sleeping

Oh, man. I love it when we record a show and things just click. I know that the three of us on the Living Japan Crew had a great time recording this, so i hope that translates into a great time listening to it. We talked a little about the trending hashtag of foreign confessions … More Living Japan Episode 68

Brain Not Working

I tried staring at my rough draft. I have a list of corrections that need to be made. But i just stared at them. That little sound a cd player makes when the disc spins at what seems to be a wrong speed. That is the sound I imagine coming off of my brain as … More Brain Not Working
