Thin smear of vegemite, over a healthy dose of butter, is the only way to do vegemite.

Greetings from Australia!
Greetings from Australia! I've been here for something like four days (I say "something like" because the time travel thing that happens when you cross the International Date Line is still confusing me), and I just love it. Anne and I are in Melbourne, which I've found to be an absoulutely wonder...
Wait, Ryan got a Humanities degree and got a job right out of college? That is awesome (and gives me hope for the usefulness of my Humanities degree once I get it)

Ryan's home for the holidays, before he moves far, far away for his new job (hey, check out my son! He graduated college last week, and he starts a great job in two weeks! Go Ryan!!) The first night he was home, I told him that the warm covers for the bed he's sleeping on were in the dryer, so...
I have RA too, and I was thinking as I read the recipe that it would be great flare food! Unless tomato is one of your triggers, of course ;)

Recipe time: Wil's Sinusitis Can Suck It Vegetable Soup
I managed to go eighteen whole months without getting sick, but sometime in the last week or so, something worked its way into my sinuses, and it's been kicking my ass for the last 48 hours. For most of the last week, I've been waking up in the morning with an intensely sore throat and painful, ...
It is not cool to mob people down the street, whether that person is in a movie or on tv or works in the comic store. Don't feel bad about telling them to F off out of your space - you wouldn't hesitate if it were your wife, or your sons, or your friends being mobbed.

Pretty much all of Comicon was awesome. However, there was one thing that was decidedly not awesome, and though I had initially decided not to talk about it in public, it's bothered me since it happened, so I wrote about it on G+ earlier today. I'm cross posting it here, though, because it's imp...
I have no comment on the beer as I don't drink it, but it's always so amazing to find someone who loves the product they sell so much they don't care if they're making a sale, they just want to teach the world about it. And it's sad that it is amazing, because it should be always like that.
Good luck with your brewing adventures.

In which my son and I make our own beer
Ryan is going to be 22 at the end of the month. For those of you who have been here since I wrote the 13 on 31 post, you now know how I feel every single day. The rest of you can get off my lawn before I call your parents. So the other day, he and I were having a beer together, and Ryan said, "W...

I think all media is inclined to report chronic illness in a bad light, how else would it be a good news story? "You're going to have a disease for the rest of your life and will have to make major lifestyle changes to accommodate it, and although you might get some relief many people don't" isn't interesting enough for the news. I find it even worse with my particular brand of chronic illness. It's great that people like your mum are promoting the reality, and offering support to people who need it (and people who love people who need it).

and now, a word from my mother about celiac disease
When we were kids, it seemed like my sister was always sick. By the time we were in high school, my brother and I were convinced that she was the best con artist of all time, regularly convincing our parents that she just couldn't go to school, and could she please have some pudding. Well, as it...
