The Web site NeverLikedItAnyway is a clever one. It’s basically a resale site, where people list items of jewelry or clothing, among other things, and visitors can buy those items directly from the sellers. The clever part is that the items are gifts from former spouses or significant others. After the relationship breaks up, the [...]

How many of you are there? No, not how many readers of this blog, but how many of YOU? How many people in the United States have your name? I can tell you there are 394 guys named Robert Kraft, and to me that’s 393 too many. I wish I were like my friend Conrad [...]

Hallelujah, written by Leonard Cohen, is not a religious song, but Christmastime gives me an excuse to mention one of my favorite singer/songwriters. I’ve been a fan of his writing even before his first album was released in 1967. Turn up your speakers to enjoy this beautiful rendition of Hallelujah:

It’s been a few weeks now since this news came out, but I still think it’s funny enough to mention. Or funny to us, at least. If you live in Pakistan, in addition to the military miseries in that country, you now might have to put up with an absurd censorship attempt aimed at text [...]

I love this Tom Rush rendition of a wonderful song by Steven Walters. It’s about losing your memory as you age. I might have already used it as a Friday Fun post, but I just can’t remember…

This Yes-No sculpture by Markus Raentz is fascinating to me. Not so much for the execution of the design as for the imagination that thought of the idea. Take a look at the site for a better view of the different perspectives.

I took a big interest in photography when our kids were young, but I never considered myself to be a good photographer. The professional photographers at YouAreNotAPhotog should not consider themselves to be good photographers either.
