Reason Prevails: Snoopy Hockey Tournaments

http://tapio-reasonprevails.blogspot.com/2011/11/snoopy-hockey-tournaments.html

A stew of science, art, current events, and luddism. Tuesday, November 22, 2011. Ok, it has been a really long time since I've posted, but I've decided to start doing this regularly again, so prepare for a flood of posts. First, the 2010 team in blue, 2011 in white. Here is a pic of me with Snoopy. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I never was good looking, but now I'm too old to let that get me down. - Chris Smither. View my complete profile.

Reason Prevails: December 2011

http://tapio-reasonprevails.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html

A stew of science, art, current events, and luddism. Monday, December 12, 2011. Anti-Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and all the Other Contrivances. While the gullible and sheep-like were out shopping after Thanksgiving, Heike and I went for a hike in the Morgan Territory. Much better option than battling the hoards of crazed, consumer-obsessed people. Beautiful day in nature wins out every time. I also got in a nice game of pickup hockey in the morning.

Reason Prevails: December 2008

http://tapio-reasonprevails.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

A stew of science, art, current events, and luddism. Saturday, December 27, 2008. Cold in San Francisco. Thursday, December 25, 2008. I may be an atheist, but I still enjoy the traditions of the holiday: friends gathering, giving gifts, the music, etc.  This year we hosted a gift exchange with friends, which included a nice dinner. Here are some pictures. Of both the party and our dinner. Tuesday, December 9, 2008. I'm nearly 53 in actual. Years, but according to the calculator:. My virtual age is 42.

Reason Prevails: July 2012

http://tapio-reasonprevails.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html

A stew of science, art, current events, and luddism. Wednesday, July 25, 2012. Another Snoopy Tournament comes and goes. It was a fun week overall with some golf, guitar playing/singing, wine tasting, hot tubbing, and socializing augmenting the hockey. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Reason Prevails: Ozumo

http://tapio-reasonprevails.blogspot.com/2009/01/ozumo.html

A stew of science, art, current events, and luddism. Saturday, January 10, 2009. My friend Fred visited San Francisco this past week, and we were able to get together at Ozumo. In San Francisco.  Ozumo is an exceedingly hip Japanese restaurant.  Very nice place with excellent food and a extra-modern decor and atmosphere.  The only negative (in my view) was the relentless and loud techno-disco permeating the place.  It made conversation challenging. I'm not so hip. Still, just and always.FredFerg. Richard...

Reason Prevails: March 2009

http://tapio-reasonprevails.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html

A stew of science, art, current events, and luddism. Wednesday, March 18, 2009. It is tragic that the Pope is in Africa telling people not to use condoms. When are people going to wake up and stop listening to witch doctors and charlatans? I count the Pope and all such religious leaders among those groups of con men. Why do people defer to him and even consider his opinion valid on this point? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Sentient Life on the Third Rock. Samoht.com Version 7&...

Reason Prevails: Badminton

http://tapio-reasonprevails.blogspot.com/2009/01/badminton.html

A stew of science, art, current events, and luddism. Tuesday, January 20, 2009. Many years ago, when I lived in Atlanta, a colleague- Leighton- taught me how to play badminton. Well, he did his best. I'm not a great student perhaps. There was a regular group that used to play at a college gym in downtown Atlanta. After moving to Dallas I stopped playing. Once again, though, for no particular reason, I let things slip and stopped playing for about 3 years. The other in Emeryville. Of the sport think it's ...

Reason Prevails: Is it 1929?

http://tapio-reasonprevails.blogspot.com/2009/01/is-it-1929_06.html

A stew of science, art, current events, and luddism. Tuesday, January 6, 2009. During the great depression, it was famously reported that stock brokers were leaping to their deaths from skyscrapers in New York. The scale of this was overblown, but it did happen. Now it seems the latest financial collapse is reviving the practice of suicide. We are in the throes of the worst recession. Jeez, it looks like I scooped NPR:.
