It’s often been the case for me. Give me a blank piece of paper and I’m in delight! I love simplicity. The other day, someone asked me for the best place to get random images. The ones I’ve used were filled with ads, popups and other assorted spam, internet jam.

In an earlier post, I talked about my passion for the history of things. The quintessential example is money: the shrinking antoninianus of the Roman Empire, the dodgy promissory notes of the Confederacy, the worthless trillion mark bills of the Weimar Republic, and more.

I am crazy about making ranked lists but I do not always share them. People can get a bit lost in the sauce and become too focused on what they don’t like rather than what they love.

Few animals in the deserts of the American southwest are more iconic than roadrunners, or at least the version of the bird created in 1949, which faced perpetual battles with one Wile E. Coyote. I certainly remember spending many Saturday mornings engrossed in their antics, the scheming, clever, brilliant, and ever-thwarted, ever-unlucky Mr. Coyote, whose allegiance to what seems to me to be one of the great marketing scams, the Acme Corporation—How exactly did they stay in business when seemingly all of their products failed—led him to order ever more elaborate, and seemingly infallible, yet always fallible, contrivances for catching his arch nemesis, and hoped for next meal, The Road Runner, a speedy, often gravity-defying, ever confident, irksome bird.
