French-trained in cheese making and goat herding, developing farm projects in the US, making award-winning cheeses, collaborating with fantastic colleagues, and re-learning how to live in America and be American with my two (very French) teen-age sons. L’Affinage in Nimes. Baby goats – theories…. April 15, 2016. As I was advising colleagues out East, seeking sources for their starter herd of doelings, I learned – after calling and writing to over 20 colleagues on the East Coast and in the Mid-West ...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Finally, a moment of candor
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2007/09/finally-moment-of-candor.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Tuesday, September 04, 2007. Finally, a moment of candor. The cable news punditry, or Chris Matthews, at least, is all abuzz today about a new Junior Bush biography due out soon. The book, entitled Dead Certain. Is authored by Robert Draper, a journalist in the employ of GQ Magazine. While I won't be reading the book, indications are that it is not exactly a hagiography like Bob Woodward's Bush at War. And I don't even like you.). But, what I don't understand is how an...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Sit down, bigot!
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2010/08/sit-down-bigot.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Monday, August 23, 2010. Sit down, bigot! Disgraceful, ignorant bigots. If anything has become apparent in the wake of the ridiculous faux debate over the construction of a Muslim cultural center at Park 51 in Manhattan. It is this: if we value our Constitution we must now demand that the center be built, as planned, on the proposed site. When rank hypocrites like Newt Gingrich. Start suggesting that we amend the Constitution. Passions running high through the dog days.

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: City perks
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2013/05/city-perks.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Thursday, May 30, 2013. Living in the city. Last night, the Portland Timbers hosted the Wilmington Hammerheads of North Carolina. It so happened that some of my season-ticket holding friends had tickets they couldn't use. This windfall development resulted in Maty and I and our sister, Nadia, hopping the #14 bus bound for Jeld-Wen Field on an unseasonably cool May evening. There was a hubbub. Me and my honey. Soon the three of them were going back and forth while I, wi...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: More proof that the Iraq War is a lie (as if we needed any)
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2008/08/more-proof-that-iraq-war-is-lie-as-if.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Wednesday, August 06, 2008. More proof that the Iraq War is a lie (as if we needed any). What does it say about the condition of this country that a bombshell. Like the one that Ron Suskind recently dropped about the Bush administration's case for war is not front page bold-type news? What does it say about the condition of this country that for many Americans, this news is just confirmation of what they have believed all along. Is an honorable man. A special assignmen...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Breaking news: Junior has regrets!
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2008/10/breaking-news-junior-has-regrets.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Thursday, November 13, 2008. Breaking news: Junior has regrets! On Tuesday, in an interview with CNN, Junior Bush, who is arguably one of the most despised and hated men in the world, admitted to having " regrets. The admission struck me like a thunderbolt. Could Junior actually regret that he is placed at the forefront of an illegal invasion. Of a sovereign nation that resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths? For torture of detainees? He elaborated, somewhat, sayi...

Sound and fury, signifying nothing: Message from a dying Iraq veteran
http://dadecariaga.blogspot.com/2013/03/message-from-dying-iraq-veteran.html
Sound and fury, signifying nothing. Friday, March 22, 2013. Message from a dying Iraq veteran. Yuck it up, pigs. It's been 10 years since Junior Bush and his filthy band of blackguards and hypocrites launched their war of greed and aggression. Tomas Young, an Iraq War veteran who has decided to end his life (he receives medicine and nourishment from a feeding tube) has penned a final letter to the evil cadre that even now enjoys the lucre it gained from its crimes at the price of his life. I am not a Chr...

Life at La Bastiole: September 2008
http://labastiole.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Life at La Bastiole. An American family in southern France. Tuesday, September 30, 2008. We went on the overnight train to Rome. I told Olivier that’s how we were getting there, two days before we were leaving, and his exact words were:. Ooh la la. Les trains italiens. Ooh la la. I don’t think I need to translate, do I? So we decided we would go over E and G’s. Were not high, either. We have stood in enough lines in front of the. To have adjusted our expectations. Ooh la la, Italian trains. I laughed a l...

Life at La Bastiole: Le portail secret
http://labastiole.blogspot.com/2009/06/le-portail-secret.html
Life at La Bastiole. An American family in southern France. Tuesday, June 30, 2009. The movers left at noon. The temperature was approaching 90 degrees, and there was enough humidity in the air, and enough clouds on the mountain horizon, to augur for more heat and an afternoon storm. La Bastiole has two gates. Houses in our commune. The one that the mairie. Has told Jules that he has to take out. The one that Jules' good friend le maire. Or the load of gravel that is supposed to solve our septic problem.
