After all these years #writing for a living, it still amazes me how I’ll be fist-fighting with a piece, trying to figure out where in the hell I’m going with it, and then, in an almost subconscious moment of clarity (usually after a walk or a nap) I feel the thread tighten and—poof—there it is.

Congratulations to our friends at Spirit of Douglas, GREGORY LE MOIGNE and Aerometal International, LLC for the world premiere of the series on the epic round the world tour of their illustrious DC-3. Catch the first episode, Spirit of Douglas: The Big Leap, on YouTube: youtu.be/hPNnkjzSBJE?...

We are so back, y'all.

The role the creative spark plays in innovation cannot be underestimated. These leaps form the basis upon which human intelligence remains a wondrous thing.

A shelter received a donation of stuffed toys and let each dog pick 1. How selfless. They each only pick 1.

Happy Thanksgiving to all… with a full plate we feel blessed. All flavored with the Scarborough herbs…

This is true. It is the best email I got this year.

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

Anyway, they all went in 1985 and talked explorer talk and man, I would have loved to have been a fly on that wall. It buries what I clearly think is the most beautiful bit of the whole story, but here's the link: 5/5 www.atlasobscura.com/articles/nei...
