If there’s anything on god’s green earth better than a fresh Queensland mango, I’d love to know about it. Firm, silky, the taste of a golden spring afternoon. Absolute perfection.
They think so too…
What hasn’t even approached perfection this year is the performance of my beloved Georgia Bulldogs. I haven’t been writing about them, and clearly [...]
I’m two years old as a blogger today. It’s my Blogday. My Bloggiversary*. Whatever you want to call it. A Thursday in midwinter.
For me, one of the most tedious type of post is the navel gazing ‘blogging about blogging’ variety. But it is my party and I’ll be narcissistic and self-indulgent if I want to. [...]
If you’ve not read Trouble’s new blog, Smile Now Cry Later, then stop wasting your time here and go over and check it out. Not only is she a fantastic writer, but she’s got a compelling story to tell. The posts thus far have focused on her couple of decades of experience working with gangs. [...]
I was in the office for my writing job today. For those of you who are new around here, one of my jobs is as a scientific writer for a company that tests anti-cancer therapeutics. There are a couple of people in the office of whom I’m particularly fond. Our receptionist is a young Canadian [...]
…shit in the other.
See which one fills up first.
I love that expression, I’ve always claimed that I heard it a lot growing up in north Florida, but I’m pretty sure that I actually read it first in a Harry Crews novel. Dr. O’C loves it as well. Just ask her. As apparently does Green Day.
But [...]
I love public transport. Not for the predictable lefty environmental reasons, though those are valid as well. The trip to and from work each day affords me an opportunity to warm up for and cool down from the day without the stress generated by fighting rush hour traffic in a car. Even better, however, is [...]
…that this is a joke. When I pull images from the internet to use in posts, I always try to credit the source – force of habit from doing academic writing for so long. Sometimes I don’t really look to see what that source is about. Which was the case with this one:
Evilutionists?
Serial Pornographer – [...]
Doesn’t have quite the same ring to it, does it? But whether her life’s worthy of a country song or not, the Coal Miner’s Granddaughter provided the latest moment of joy in what has been a joyful week for your underwhelming correspondent. A bag chock full of Georgia Bulldogs paraphenelia swag chugged/steamed/flew its way from [...]
Phew, that feels better. If you’re coming over from my former personal site then thanks for going through the hassle. I’m grateful to you for reading. One small favor, help me to keep this site vaguely anonymous by not using my or Dr. O’C’s surname, etc. Beyond that, things are more or less the same, [...]
Expect some major reconstruction here on A Free Man for the next few days. Apologies if things look a bit wonky for a while. Bear with us.
