Headed west on Highway 10, a red Nisson: E COLI

Wulf has long suspected that all of the good band names have been taken, leading to bands with names like Techno-Squid Eats Parliament. It appears we have now run out of good vanity-plate words.

Salvaging discarded fans and refurbishing them is something Wulf does to save money. It is surprising how often someone will toss a fan that can be disassembled, cleaned, oiled, and put back into service. There are fans in every room. The white noise that fans produce can be helpful in aiding sleep, and a zephyr of air directed over water pipes can ( Read more... )

Wulf's people!

Wulf has a wonderful job performing maintenance in a huge convention center. It is, in many ways, the best job Wulf has ever had. The pay is meager, yet sufficient for Wulf's needs.

The speaker was a teenage girl, addressing a teenage boy, both of whom were decidedly not Chinese. Wulf could not help ( Read more... )

1. What is your favorite genre to read?
Science fiction (especially military science fiction, such as David Weber's Honor Harrington series). There is something stirring about fleets of hostile starships hurling inconceivable energies screaming (silently) across space. Fantasy can be equally good (Karl Edward Wagner's Kane books), yet ( Read more... )

When the storm started, two Sunnights back, Wulf felt the call of sirens' voices. As rain pattered and thunder rumbled, YouTube delivered the dulcet voices of the Wailin' Jennys. A wonderful gospel piece, Storm Comin', was hypnotically pleasing. Wulf listened to the song three or five times before retiring for the evening.
