Denver doesn’t have bugs. That is one the things Mike & I both liked about it. There are insects, but they tend to crawl around and generally leave one alone. There are not many bothersome insects that “bug” one. Rapid City has flies. Not at the “plague of locusts” level, but they’re around and theyContinue reading “Flies – I may be overthinking this”

We has Wildlifes
Nambi, Pambi [the “b”-word shall not be mentioned due to omnipresent Disney lawyers] and their Mom walked up the alley this morning. We also have a few of Peter’s [that’s safe; Ms. Potter’ estate has no lawyers to speak of] relatives, but everyone has rabbits. Here’s why I’m surprised by deer: Update: Embedded Map Success!Continue reading “We has Wildlifes”
Still Alive
Blogging the move was taking to much time from, you know, actually moving. I’m sure my vast readership will be happy to know all is well. I will be moved by 16 August. Hopefully, I will resume both blogging in general and the Learning 2 Bake series. I’m going down 2,000 feet in altitude; hopefullyContinue reading “Still Alive”
“Can” is a Tricky Word
The blog title implies a certain amount of copyediting. So, let’s take a look at something from a Behind the Black post about the crashing Chinese booster: The issue here is not the danger, but China’s gross negligence and violation of its treaty obligations in launching this rocket knowing the core stage was going toContinue reading ““Can” is a Tricky Word”
Gardening 2
Let’s call the Seeds Arrived post “Gardening 1” and press on. I realized that I should be taking more garden pictures because the spring bulbs will not be visible to the new owners and it will be helpful for them to know what is where. This is the front on 05 April: Unfortunately, I waitedContinue reading “Gardening 2”
Grandma’s Bowls
Being up unexpectedly early, I thought I would play around with Python and Pulsar, but apparently I need more coffee for that. Instead, I’ll tell another equipment story… First, this is a different grandmother: Rita not Erna (terminology aside, they were sisters). Throughout several years of grade school, Rita made bread for my peanut butterContinue reading “Grandma’s Bowls”
Busted!
Despite powdered sugar being very obvious on the paws of a black cat, there was no evidence. A cat licking its paws, who’d a thunk? The cake is gone, now. I ate the last piece for breakfast. Think of it as cold French Toast. The balls are the taffy-like grape frosting. They will be coveredContinue reading “Busted!”
Seeds Arrived – Finally
No cake today. My seed order finally arrived and I shall be planting them. It’s a bit late, but I ordered in what I thought was plenty of time. The source shall remain nameless because there is probably some notice about packaging and shipping time on their website, somewhere. It’s likely my own fault. Regardless,Continue reading “Seeds Arrived – Finally”
I’m Back
It’s been several years since I let Marked Up die. Hosting it myself just wasn’t worth the hassle. I’m bringing it back because I find I have something to say, again. Update (5 seconds later): There will probably be growing pains as I learn WordPress, but no one is reading this, so it doesn’t matter!
