Maria took me to the Louisville Science Center. It’s been probably like a decade since I’ve been there, even though I now live within a mile of it, and it was pretty cool to go back. The rumor is true–the magnificent woolly mammoth that used to occupy the entrance is gone, as are the mummies. The two polar bears are still there, though, hidden in the back of the second floor. Rarr! I’m a polar bear!
Dear gentle reader: this blog has been operating continuously since I was a teenager. The writing below is at least a decade old. In that time every molecule of my body has been replaced, along with many foolish ideas and flighty beliefs. I want to keep some of those things public out of an honesty and humility I owe the world. I trust you to carry that context with you.
