safe place to buy Clomiphene A very well-put, thoughtful piece by Erik Lindberg on how even the most liberal democrats and greens are probably climate change deniers nearly as myopic as any Republican. The democratic problem is a belief that no serious change of lifestyle is required: that all we need to do is shift the sources of our energy […]

A Little Bit of Wisdom and Perspective.
29-Nov-14Back at the Cabin.
23-Nov-14purchase Ivermectin online Back to a place where you can’t just come home and get cooking: you come home, start the fire, put the olive oil by the fire for a half hour, and once it’s liquid enough to pour, then you can start cooking. Gotta love it.

I Love My Friends.

I came back from the city late Monday night, and […]

13-Feb-14This morning I woke to the sound of large machinery. I was surprised: it had started snowing last night and a full-on blizzard was expected. I got up and looked out the window: there was an excavator trying to turn around on my driveway. The snow was melting, too, which surprised me, and there were […]
Thoreau on Simplicity.
20-Mar-14Reflecting further on what I am looking for, as opposed to what Helen and Scott Nearing were looking for, I find much of the answer in Thoreau as usual: I see young men, my townsmen, whose misfortune it is to have inherited farms, houses, barns, cattle, and farming tools; for these are more easily acquired […]
