Read MoreSpectrum Cable sure knows me when it’s billing time, though…
When it comes to paying the necessary bills in my life, I do so with the knowledge that if I owe money, it must be paid. If I want lights in my house, then I pay the light bill. If I want to call someone, then I pay the phone bill. And if I want…
Read MoreWhen the 1919 Hudson River flooded in 2023.
It’s March of 1919, and the Albany Argus notes that the Hudson River is swelled to its bursting point.

It’s not an 11’2″ clearance any more.

Read MoreMy new customized View-Master reels arrived. Wow.
I’ve been on a three-dimensional photography kick of late, now that I’ve combined two Nikon Df cameras with a synchronized shutter. And as I continue this process, each time that I get a decent set of stereoscopic photos, I keep going on a theme until I achieve seven distinct photo sets. Then I send the…
