2020/07 Ship's Log

Amie and I started a docuseries about the 90’s Chicago Bulls called “The Last Dance.” I have faint memories of the buzz around Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippin, and Dennis Rodman as a child, but now I can finally begin to appreciate what they did for Chicago and basketball.

“My goal was, and is, to share my love of working in plain text with a wider audience.”

Thank you, Scott Nesbitt, for starting The Plaintext Project. Though I discovered your work less than a year ago, I am one for whom your writing resonated.

I attended my first IndieWeb Homebrew meetup yesterday. I’m jazzed that folks from many disciplines share a passion for personal websites and networks. A kind and helpful bunch :)

Wow, Max's bookmarklet is such a smooth experience! Now I want one for myself…

Six years and four cars later, Pilo’s remains the best auto service I’ve ever used. His prices are reasonable, his work is thorough, and his integrity is matchless. Today he fixed our transmission, not by replacing the whole (which would have been thousands of dollars) but only the part that would get us through the next 50,000 miles.

If you need a mechanic, your search is over. Go to Pilo! Tell Natalia that the Bilson’s sent you.
