Dog of the Day: Smiling Shiba Inu

Posted on March 8, 2016 by Adam Lang

I really think this guy could be the spokes-dog for some product or other. Maybe a tavern? “Eat at the sign of the Smiling Shiba Inu?” Or perhaps he’d prefer something a little more in line with his own interests… … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Coast Guard German Shorthaired Pointer

Posted on March 7, 2016 by Adam Lang

I recently ran across some ‘Dogs of the Coast Guard’, including this fine Coast Guard German shorthaired pointer. I certainly never knew that the Coast Guard had canine troops, but it seems that they do. In fact, I strongly suspect … Continue reading →

Dog of the Day: Mr Winston Augustus, the Magnificently Attired Poodle

Posted on March 4, 2016 by Adam Lang

Sunday Switchup: The Parrots of Telegraph Hill

Posted on January 24, 2016 by Adam Lang

The parrots of Telegraph Hill. (If you haven’t seen the movie, it’s awesome.) I never get tired of these guys, no matter how many times they wake me up at 5 AM (‘Squawk! Squawk squawk!’) while flying by (or perching … Continue reading →

Posted on January 17, 2016 by Adam Lang

So, yesterday I said I’d have a story for you, and here it is. On January 7th, someone contacted me on a web site I discovered recently called ‘TimeRepublik‘. It’s a way of basically trading your hours for other people’s: … Continue reading →
