Writing for New York Times a Third Time


The New York Times is publishing another series of blogs under the label Homefires.  Best of all, the New York Times Select is no longer subscription based.  More accurately, it no longer exists, everything is simply lumped into the NYT website.  The end state is the same: you no longer need a subscription to read my Homefires material.  Visit Homefires here and check it out.

Win win all around. Looking forward to your writing.

Cheers, fellow gamer. Good work. The sooner people realize that videogames are to the 21st century what film was to the 20th, the sooner we’ll get more great games to play. Do you play MMORPGs? I’m a devotee of Eve Online, a spreadsheet simulator with a near-vertical learning curve where you’re a paranoid spaceship.
Thank you for your service to our country. My father was a WWII Marine, and an atomic veteran (on first boat to land at Nagasaki after the bomb dropped). I believe the Iraq war was the wrong war at the wrong time, and the US will be paying for these mistakes for decades. But the Marine Corps doesn’t make policy, they just execute it, and no finer fighting force has ever existed on planet Earth.

Send me an email next time you’re in Birmingham, I’ll buy you a beer.

RE y’day’s posting “Same Old Song and Dance” : yes yes yes.

The problem is getting there.

A reasonable tactic comes to mind: in every election, vote. For every vote: vote for the least crapulous of the candidates, regardless of party label.

Takes time and patience. But the ‘net helps speed and catalyze things. We need problem-solvers at all levels.
