Maszman Speaks!

Here’s a story you prob­a­bly won’t hear much about, since the news is more con­cerned with the death of a third-rate dic­ta­tor and how much a semi-famous skank weighs. A mas­sive, ancient Arc­tic ice shelf col­lapsed and broke free of the ice in far North­ern Canada. It’s a sad reminder that global warm­ing is tak­ing its toll on our envi­ron­ment and how fast it is actu­ally pro­ceed­ing. I’m not suf­fi­ciently knowl­edge­able about global cli­mate issues to know if this is man-made or part of a long term nat­ural trend but the cause is less impor­tant than the effects.

We went to see the Amerks play Bing­ham­ton (and win) and then it was din­ner at Dinosaur. The kitchen is a pretty lively place, sim­i­lar to places I worked in long ago, but it’s open and you can watch and lis­ten. Taken with my Treo in low light, hence the almost black & white appearance.
