Just a quick note to let readers know I'm not dead, and everything's ok.  There just hasn't been a lot of time to blog lately.  I (or Lizz!) will get back to it soon, I promise! more »

Short one today. Just wanted to mention that the fine folks @ D&R Market recently gave us a bunch of surplus venison from their processing season. Some loins, stew meat cubes, and a few packages of ground. So yesterday we took a pack of the groun… more »

Before I get onto the main subject of this post, I just want to mention I took a couple bottles of our first-ever homebrew, a black IPA, to the club meeting on Tuesday and it was well-received. "Doesn't have the typical 'kit flavor'" was said by more t… more »

For years, we've liked quality coffee. We'd been ordering fresh-roasted whole bean coffee from Intelligentsia, located in Chicago. We'd have our coffee within a few days of it being roasted, as opposed to mass produced commercial coffee, which may hav… more »

It's been quite a while since I've written here. Mainly we've just been busy doing a ton of new things, and I haven't had much time to write. That, and to be honest, most of the things we've been doing aren't overly appropriate for discussion on a pub… more »

As I'd posted before, I've been playing LOTRO lately. It's been fun. I don't get a ton of time to play, but LOTRO works well for odd blocks of time, at least at the early levels. My Lore-master is just up to level 20 as of last night. As he's of t… more »

I'd like start posting more regularly, as I miss the simple joy of just writing, and then having "the world" read it. Plus it's a good cognitive exercise, and it's also just fun. Rather than just randomly blathering, though, I'd like to come up with a… more »

Oh yeah, you might wonder why the weblog is named 225°, too. :P Well, I've been using the name "Pazuzu" as a handle since 1985 or 1986 (BBS days FTW!). In Sumerian mythology, Pazuzu is the demon of the Southwest Winds. Southwest is 225 degrees on… more »
