This is a fennec fox at the Los Angeles Zoo peering suspiciously at me from safely behind some logs. Perhaps he would have viewed me with more favor if I'd had a tasty morsel of rodent to offer.

Look closely. Do you see that expression on its mouth? "Hmph. Taking photos of me without first paying with food! I'm not posing for ya."

One of the characters in the movie Zootopia (Finnick) is a Fennec. A great movie, btw.

I started blogging in 2002 at my own site. In 2004 I got hired by the Washington Monthly and then moved to Mother Jones in 2008, where I blogged and wrote for the print magazine for 12 years. Finally, in 2021, I came full circle, leaving MoJo to once again blog at my own site.

Prior to blogging, I was vice president of marketing for Kofax Image Products, a software company in Irvine, California. I’m married, no kids, two cats. In 2014 I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a cancer of the bone marrow. It’s currently incurable, but modern treatments are pretty good and I remain alive and hopeful that a cure is on the way.
