This is an African spoonbill in a picture taken at the San Diego Zoo. As I recall, the spoonbill was not very cooperative but it eventually showed its entire self.

What a wonderful photo. Thanks, Kevin. We forget there are ALL sort of cool creatures out there who are trying to figure out their daily lives, too.

Much more beautiful than the OC woman's Nazi armband - is OC really "newly blue" with any certainty?

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.
