All submissions will be shown in a salon setting, then the best of the best will be selected for the regular Photo Regionals…

Another black man shot by police, this time, in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Jacob Blake. Seven times in the back. The officer who shot him, Rusten Sheskey, grabbed him by the shirt, pointed a service revolver into Blake’s back, and fired seven times. Blake’s spinal cord was destroyed. He will never walk again.

When you have a cultural phenomenon like the Broadway musical Hamilton, it’s going to touch every aspect out there.

I stumbled across this TV game show some time ago, it was an attempt by a British company to export their game shows online as playable entertainment. The show was called Countdown, and apparently it’s one of the longest-running British game shows out there. Essentially, the game of Countdown involves letters and numbers, as you…

So my son Kris just turned 34 today. 34 years old. He’s maybe 13 years older than Law and Order: Special Victims Unit. Now I could have sent Kris a package, but right now the US Postal Service is being Trump-i-fied into a mess. And I could have sent Kris a gift card from Amazon…
