I’ve shot infrared film off and on for several years. I’ve shot color Kodak EIR when I’ve had fresh stashes of it; I’ve worked with Kodak HIE black and white film, Aerochrome color infrared film, Efke 820 black and white stock, and a few other mixtures. Some examples are below. Which, of course, gets me…
Read MoreI need an Acclaimed #78 jersey, and I’m not a cop.
I enjoy watching All Elite Wrestling. For me, Wednesday night is reserved for AEW Dynamite, and Friday nights are locked in for AEW Rampage. For me, it’s much more exciting than watching WWE wrestling. The storylines make more sense, the action is more realistic, and you get more involved in watching the program each week.…
Read MoreThe Albany Patroons RETURN TO THE FINALS!!
In the end, last night wasn’t even close. The Albany Patroons entered the Washington Avenue Armory and dog-walked the Kokomo BobKats 121-83. Took them out like Glass Joe in Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out. Don’t believe me? Look at that scoreboard. It gets better. With that win, the Patroons are now the champions of the TBL’s East…
Read MoreFor one night, it’s not Patroons, it’s Pot-troons and Pan-troons
Last night, the Albany Patroons were in a dire situation. They’re currently in a best-of-three semifinal championship match with the Kokomo BobKats, and the Pats lost Game 1 on the road in Kokomo – in front of a packed house full of cowbell-toting fans and a noisy fan drumline. What, you think Kokomo was loud?…
Read MoreThe leathering ceremony
Long-time readers of my blog know that if I truly, truly enjoy using a film camera, and that camera’s vulcanite coating is old and ratty, I’ll take some time and re-leather the camera, making it look all swank and new. That’s why I once owned a bright blue Nikkormat FTn and a bright green Leica…
Read MoreWhat’s Up in the Neighborhood, June 25 2022
I’m still blisteringly numb over this week’s s Supreme Court ruling. The fact that the Court basically said that a woman’s right to control her body must be left up to the states, but states could not rule on concealed-carry gun rights … just makes me sick. And if you don’t think that abortion rights…

The Nightowl Radio Show playlist for June 24, 2022
The following is a playlist for the broadcast of the Nightowl Radio Show, a one-hour college radio show on station WHCL-FM. The show can be streamed tonight at 7:00 p.m. Eastern at whcl.org. Tonight’s episode is really cool. It’s a collection of well-known artists who, for one reason or another, recorded under fake names and…
Read More“You’re on a 2,000 day streak on Chuck the Writer!” (Well, more than that…)
WordPress has this little quirk where, after I post my daily blog, it’ll send me a message saying that I’m on a very long consecutive posting streak. Yesterday, on July 23, 2022, after I posted my blog about reviewing the new Stewarts’ “Sunshine Shake” refresher beverage, WordPress alerted me that I had achieved 2,000 days…
Read MoreStewarts’ “Sunshine Shake” new orange milkshake refresher flavor
I give Stewarts’ Shops credit. They try to mix things up with their beverages. Last year, I reviewed their limited edition peanut butter milkshake on my blog. The best thing I could say about it was that it was wet and cold. Yesterday, I discovered a new product in the local Stewarts’ cooler. Something called…
Read MoreLady Ruby > Crazy Rudy
They were just election workers doing their job. Doing it the same way for years and years. That’s all Ruby Freeman and her daughter, Shaye Moss, did that day. But in an effort to try to find some conspiracy, some secret sinister sliminess to secure a spurious suggestion that the voting results in Fulton County,…
