Clogging is the national dance of Appalachia, and has its roots in England and Wales sometime before the 15th Century. It’s an enthusiastic form of…

The migraines have been co-operating lately, so I’ve been much more physically active. And then yesterday I wrenched my back vacuuming the house. So today…
As I’ve said before, collapse is a process, not an event. We’ve went for weeks and nothing much has changed, and then we have a…
And honestly, we’re all better off for it. John Wilder has a remarkable piece on The Jab and all the possible negative outcomes we know…

I’ve been trying for 3 days to get something down in a readable format and I simply can’t do it. It’s not a disaster; it…
