You know you’re a sci-fi/horror fan if the term “Winter Storm Blair” immediately makes you think of this person.

Two snowfalls within a week?

This feels like a normal winter.

And normalcy, my friends, was not on my 2025 bingo card.

I’m confused about how this will lower grocery prices.

The Piker Press publishes my photo of the Admiral David G. Farragut statue in Washington, D.C.

I’m so happy to see The Piker Press today publish my photo of the Admiral David G. Farragut statue in Washington, D.C.’s Farragut Square.  You can find the picture right here.

Farragut Square is a great place to stop and relax on a sunny day if you’re catching a train out of The District.  It’s a couple of blocks from The White House — and there are plenty of food trucks with interesting fare.  (You see, Virginians?  Long Island is NOT the only place who has those.)  DC residents can be surprisingly friendly too.

Thanks, as always, to Managing Editor Sand Pilarski for letting me be a part of the creative community of The Piker Press!
