Because I’m an idiot easily seduced by ideas that are monumentally stupid:
Growing up, my parents always made an advent calendar a big part of the Christmas season, and it’s a tradition we have continued with Gabe.
Last week I thought that a web-based Frank lloyd Wright advent calendar would be a way to keep the Newsblog […]

Since I have surfeit of free time, I’ve decided to strike out one of the “it would be nice if this site had a … ” items on my list. If you look above, you’ll see that I’ve added a new section to the site: one of those click-y Google maps. It shows public Frank […]

I’ve never been laid off before. Frankly, it’s an experience I would have happily foregone.
And honestly, while I like the Frank Lloyd Wright Newsblog, it’s really not something I want to do full-time for free. But I’m pretty sure that wasn’t a consideration when Faceless Fortune 500 Company down-sized today. On the other hand, […]

Vanquishing the dark forces of procrastination, I have at last whipped the event calendar into a rough approximation of a useful thing. I’m sure I’m missing a bunch of stuff (for example, Buffalo is oddly Wright-free for the next few months) but if I don’t know about it, I can’t post it; if you know […]

I have to go to Columbus, Ohio on a business trip for three days — I’m not looking forward to it; I don’t like business travel and I do not like Columbus (my GO BLUE! bumper sticker will be a big hit in Buckeye country). I hope to be able to keep up the posts […]

Formerly pathetic and paltry, the links page now has a somewhat respectable number of links — and it’s even presented in a fairly pleasing manner. No one would call it comprehensive, but it is large. Sturgeon’s Law (”90% of everything is crap”) applies to the Frank Lloyd Wright web, just like everything else, so I have […]

The new page design I’m using allows for special, short posts that are visually distinct from longer, conventional posts. I’m thinking about using this feature for quick, possibly slightly off-topic, links to interesting things I might not otherwise mention. You can see an example immediately below.
I don’t really care for the “Quick bits” label applied […]

I just changed the site’s layout. A few things still need to be changed and adjusted.
Sorry for the mess.
More recent Update: Links page is now working. I will probably move the links off of the side bar, though I may leave a abbreviated list of links there. The links at the bottom of the […]

We are back from Fort Wayne. Gabe had a good time, which was the whole point of the trip, and, since Fort Wayne lies at the other end of the river that runs through our town, a city we should be familiar with.
Last week was a quiet week for Frank Lloyd Wright news, but, naturally, […]

I’m off to Fort Wayne, Indiana for the weekend — trying to squeeze in some fun for Gabe before he is thrown face first into the maw of Catholic education (I’m a Congregationalist, the most Protestant of Protestant faiths, and I dislike hierarchies more than most Congregationalists, which is tough, since the whole denomination is built […]
