Orange Crate Art began on a Wednesday night, shortly after dinner, September 15, 2004. My children, Rachel and Ben, helped me get started. Rachel told me what to say for a first post.
Keeping this blog has brought me more possibilities of thinking and learning and sharing that I could have imagined. It’s made writing — work that always put my academic self in a state of high anxiety — a pleasure. More importantly, it’s kept me off the streets and out of trouble, at least for some chunk of time every day.
And now, onward.

Congratulations from Heber. It’s the kind of writing you enjoy writing and I enjoy reading.
Thanks, Heber. I’m reading you too.
Thank you, Ben & Rachel!
Happy birthday to OCA, Michael.
You and your blog are both Virgos.
Top three qualities of Virgo (from astrologer Marz—standing right in front of me):
Insightful
Useful
Fair.
Sounds right to me.
Elements of quirky delight are imported from other constellations.
I don't remember what first brought me here, or even how many of twenty years this charming bog has been in my RSS feed. What I do know is that only my wife ever gets the Mystery Actor.
Congratulations on 20 years. We all hope you keep it up.
Thanks, Fresca. Thanks, ChasM.
I have to add Ben’s name. Rachel told me what to say, but Ben and Rachel both helped me with HTML.
Cheers
