U.S. District Judge Roger Benitez issued a preliminary injunction to provide protection to these high school teachers who challenged the San Diego County Escondido Unified School District’s (USD) policy. The teachers argued that the policy infringed on their First Amendment rights of free speech and free exercise of religion, and that to violate it and be dishonest with parents would go against their genuine religious beliefs...

When your favorite local beer shop decides to liquidate their inventory, and they invite you into the deep recesses of the walk-in fridge, you may find beer over ten years old, like this one. I hope it doesn't kill me . . .

Serendipity!

Since I recently subscribed to the channel Sidetrack Adventures, YouTube has been recommending various videos to watch.

I did a double take when I saw "Campo Creek" in the title of this one. A few weeks ago I wrote about a trestle of this old railroad in Those Who Wander! So if you've read that or just enjoy desert highlands or railroads, check out this video.

To be clear, the trestle I wrote about is 13 miles southwest of the Campo Creek Viaduct. The video gives a brief overview of the railroad and has a shot looking down the rail line toward that trestle and the tunnel on the other side.

If I were to start a vlog, it would be along the lines of Sidetrack Adventures. I love visiting new places, exploring, and digging into local history. Truth is often stranger than fiction.

PSA: A scholarship for LGBTQ and Nonbinary Film/TV critics of color in Southern California!

A wonderful organization I am on the board of has partnered with Rotten Tomatoes to award a scholarship to three talented LGBTQ and/or nonbinary critics of color in the Southern California.

So far, we have mostly gotten submissions from trolls and racists, and we really want to award some fresh writing talent!

“The Crimson Honors scholarship is open to qualifying community or state college students in the Southern California area who are seeking a career in entertainment criticism. A select panel of GALECA members will review and consider all student submissions of film/TV criticism and/or commentary featured in a campus media outlet in 2022. After deliberation, the panel will honor three students who demonstrate excellence in their craft. The grand prize winner will receive $3000, with two finalists each collecting $1,500. All three winners will also receive $100 Fandango and VUDU gift cards to watch movies in theaters or at home, and a complimentary yearlong GALECA membership, with opportunities to meet editors and Advisory Board members in the group. “
