August 15, 2008 · Leave a Comment
Auslanders: Blistzfahrt Amsterdam The first time I went to Amsterdam, it was with a bunch of teenage girls. Well, maybe not a bunch, but there were definitely at least two of them. And maybe they weren’t exactly teenage girls, but they were teenage girls back when I met them. Please do not assume that I am a multi-national gentleman of leisure running my newest ladies into the bowels of the Red Light District, because that is simply not the case. I am no pimp, just a simple high school teacher. There are probably some... [Read the full story]

The Vegan Brownie I am fairly certain that I am the last one to the party on this particular issue, but that doesn’t matter, because I need to be honest here. I can’t let this go unspoken, and it’s not because of guilt. There is no guilt. Not on my account. Instead, what I feel in the place of guilt is a kind of freedom, a rippling frisson of delight that has run through me and has made me feel like a young man trumpeting his first lover’s name from the highest hill out behind the barn. So it is that I find myself... [Read the full story]
