Old man since 1993. Books everywhere. Tobacco pipes are a way of life worth living. Agrarian political philosophy. DMV is home. Husband, Father, Roman Catholic above all.

Nobody ever planted a tree in this photo. It was a working gravel pit 30 years ago.

We need to get over our obsession with planting trees and let nature do the job. The results are just SO much better.

It's also about realising we are not, in fact, central to everything. 🌍

Maybe Tulsi Gabbard can let Assad stay at her house, since they are pals.

I enjoy Tom Hank’s’ early work to a rather absurd degree. Tonight, I’m enjoying an absolute classic, Joe Versus the Volcano. The Lloyd Bridges, Tom Hanks scene together should have won someone an Oscar. Maybe a Nobel. #TomHanks #JoeVersustheVolcano

I like the Savinelli St Nicholas. I like the Christmas pipe better, but not for $650.

For anyone who enjoys the “Old Georgetown Blend”, Sutliff filled the blend mixture for Georgetown Tobacco. They are gone, so interruptions might occur. Buy now! #tobacco #GeorgetownTobacco #Savinelli

Scientists are reporting that it would take just a single mutation in the version of bird flu that has swept through U.S. cattle herds to produce a virus adept at latching on to human cells, a much simpler step than previously imagined.
Single bird flu mutation could let it latch easily to human cells, study finds
The potential mutation would allow the avian influenza virus sweeping through cattle herds to attach to a receptor protein on the surface of our cells.

“Trump appears determined to test if he can squander the goodwill he has, and when he does, it will only serve to reinforce what many already know: his leadership is a clear and present danger to the principles that hold this nation together.” My latest:

Lots of snow in western Md (near Wisp ski resort, opening Friday) and Canaan Valley in northeast W. Va. 4 to 10 inches have fallen above 2,500 feet.

Blizzard warning for these areas until 3p.

The #Geminids meteor shower is currently active. Rates will be low for now but start to pick up every day. In about a week you could see 5-10 per hour. The best nights to see them are 12-13, 13-14 and 14-15 December. The bright Moon will reduce the numbers visible this year though. #Astronomy
