Some of you may have wondered what that last post was all about. After all, it just doesn’t sound like me. And you’d be right! It’s a paid advertisement is what it is! I’m happy to accept an amount of money that pays for the Eyebrow’s yearly server costs to host a sponsored posting. It’s …

Misrepresenting with Maps
The Atlanta Braves are moving to Cobb County, away from their long-time residence in Downtown Atlanta. There are many reasons given for this move, but one of them is shown in the picture which is the concentration of ticket sales to the north of Atlanta. The new stadium location is approximately central on this map, …
Hat! It’s a Hat!
I’m very excited and proud that I produced a hat. I started it a few days ago and finished last night. I know that this is simple and easy, but I’m just a knit-beginner and I’m delighted to produce something that I can use. I was excited because this is a step up in complexity …
New Knitting!
Last spring I took up a knitting project. I made a simple, garter stitch scarf. Since then, I haven’t done much except screw around a bit with a couple practice squares. I’ve decided that it’s time to pick a new project and get going, learning knitting while doing. Et voici! I’ve chosen a hat to …

I narrated another story for Pseudopod and it’s up today. Go have a listen at its website. Apathetic Flesh was written by Darren O. Godfrey and is a disturbing take on ennui.
NaNoWriMo is WRONG!
Or at least, National Novel Writing Month is in the wrong month. I tweeted this statement earlier today: I think NaNoWriMo is silly (because of the month, not the concept) but who is participating? — Bill Ruhsam (@bruhsam) October 30, 2013 I fully support the basic concept of NaNoWriMo which is to just bang out …
Eric Flint 1632 Series
I am a fan of speculative fiction. Most of what I read falls under that umbrella, which includes science fiction, fantasy, alternate history, post-apocalyptic, dystopian, and others. Science fiction is one of my mainstays, and alternate history is another. I learned about the alternate history ((I’m sure a more literary-minded academic could answer this, but …
Atlanta Pride 2013
Annie and Mike (left) were visiting from Massachusetts, so Jenn, me, Griffin, Jake and Jess went down to the Pride Parade. It was, as always, a colorful menagerie of people in all shapes and sizes. Watching the Pride Parade go by for two hours is an exercise in visual gymnastics and fun! I put some …
Back on Track?
It has been a busy few months, but I think things are settling back down into a routine. At least as routine as you can get with an infant around. Firstly, and most importantly, we had a baby! Wow, that sure threw a wrench into the life-schedule that we had spent nine years putting together. …
