In this first of two posts, we will build the case that Pebble Dash was not a distinctive feature of #FrankLloydWright’s #AmericanSystemBuiltHomes. It was someone else’s idea. #architecturalhistory elizabethmurphyhouse.com/2025/12/23/p...
Pebble Dash was not Wright’s Idea (Part 1)

Noticing niceness in many common human interactions recently. Perhaps AI - and the loneliness and detachment it brings - has real people appreciating real people.

#Sailing stands apart as one of the last true natural experiences. You enter the elements head first and don’t try to escape them; indeed, often you can’t. sailingmagazine.net/article-1687...
A sail into the foggy abyss offers one of life's truly genuine experiences
Had we heeded the forecaster’s gloomy wind warnings, we would not have started the race, but 20 sailboats slipped over the line at 18:30 and inched up the 21-mile course. An hour—and two tedious miles...

Congratulations to 47 and 47m for managing to turn Wisconsin blue again in just 10 weeks. A major accomplishment for the administration.

Is it ironic or predicted that this originalist court has sewn an Emporer’s new clothes?

Record-breaking, market-making Bidenomics (SPX + 55%, DJIA +36%, COMP +46%) is officially over thanks to these numbskulls.

I’m reduced to 3 goals. (1) Outlive 47. (2) Watch M47 launch himself toward Mars. (3) Witness and lend a hand in the reconstruction of a proud, optimistic and honest Nation.

In a matter of months, AI has destroyed Google and Bing search. I don't need a conversation, I need a list of possibilities so I can pick and choose. It took 20 seconds to tell my browser to hit DuckDuckGo and I feel so much freer and safer.

Meanwhile, the French solo-sailor Charlie Dalin has circumnavigated the earth in 66 days, crushing the record in the Vendee Globe. There may be hope for humans.

A long-overdue history of Russell Barr Williamson's Eagle's Club in Milwaukee courtesy of Bobby Tanzilo, who is Urban Spelunking. Chock with historic photos. Also, FLlw's influence underlies. onmilwaukee.com/articles/the...

Another Gnome flick may be in the works. This time, they're shipwrecked off MKE during a polar vortex. (Or are they elves?)
