No one wants to see the grave of a loved one disturbed. It’s dishonorable, distasteful, and usually illegal.
That is exactly what happened this weekend though.
There is a page on my blog called “the graveyard”, a list of dead friends that I published as a response to those who claimed that every time an AIDS dissident [...]
Most of my work the last few decades have involved that interface… that point of contact between human beings and the computer.
I’ve written previously about my earliest experience with computers in the 1970s, while still in high school, where I advocated for the first computer programming course at Colby High School. We ran our simple [...]
Please pardon me while I toot my own horn for just a minute because I’m pretty excited about how quickly a few tweaks have improved the visibility of my blog.
Online blogging platforms, such as WordPress and Blogger, and social networking sites like facebook have made blogging quite the simple task for many people. Unless [...]
My artist brother Gordon helped me update my logo and avatar so it has a much more pleasing, stylized look for use online. The original tattoo can be seen in a previous post about how this particular icon, which I call “somos uno“, came into being.
As much as I love the tattoo on my shin [...]
It’s been a rough weekend for blogging.
My blog hosting service, ixwebhosting.com, moved my blog to an upgraded server, which is a good thing. When this process is done it takes 48 to 72 hours to “propagate” across the web. This is not so good.
What this means is that my blog has been inaccessible for a [...]
YIKES! I think and hope that I may have just redirected my blog from wordpress.com to my own domain.
If successful, this move will not affect any regular readers, but you should note the new URL, update your browsers’ favorites, bookmarks, or whatever you call them.
Secondly, hit one of the “subscribe” buttons in the frame on [...]
I started this blog one year ago today.
What a difference a year can make.
After several years of self-imposed isolation–mostly due to the effects caused by being over-drugged by allopathic doctors–I started re-emerging as a participant in the world around me.
Blogging was a part of that.
I started blogging mostly for myself, thinking it would be a [...]
Normally I wouldn’t want to waste this much time or bandwidth on such a matter, but the questionable activities involved justify calling this insignificant gnat out. He’s finally irritated me enough that I have to swat him. Besides, I’m off my feet for a few days and have some extra time on my hands, or [...]
I really want to attend the 2009 Rethinking AIDS conference, to be held in Oakland this fall, but am not sure I’ll be able to afford it since Michael has just been laid off from his job.
Asking for money is not a new experience for me. Getting it, however is another story. My first [...]
I just posted a new video on youtube, discussing the LOTTI study I blogged about yesterday. Video is a new medium for me and I had such a positive response from my first video that I hope it helps get this message of hope out to more people.

This second video has far higher quality, thanks [...]
