Notes from a participant-observer
on the passing parade of life.
Some sad news from his family: Dan Rigney, the man behind Poor Rigney's Almanac, died in his home earlier this month. He was a writer, professor, mentor, husband, and father who we loved and will miss dearly. His obituary can be found here:

I can’t believe you named my favorite albums of all time. It’s really as though you and I are the same the same person. This is truly uncanny. Where are you?
