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…

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.

Read MoreStewarts’ “Sunshine Shake” new orange milkshake refresher flavor

I recently received news that the last company capable of developing AGFA Scala 200x B&W slide film will shut its doors soon. With that in mind, I looked through my film stash and found three rolls of 120 and one roll of 35mm. Well, no time like the present to burn those off. Actually, let’s…

But today is the day for sharing blog posts and photos and observances from the wonderful people that populate my personal blogroll. So let’s get right to the action, shall we?…
