Things broken beyond repair in our household in February (so far):

  • One glass coffeemaker pitcher (cracked against something ceramic in dish drainer)
  • One tempered glass cutting board (dropped onto kitchen floor)
  • One drinking glass (knocked onto kitchen floor by large wooden cutting board that tipped over after being stood up on its edge, unwisely)
  • One large wooden cutting board (hurled angrily to floor seconds after the aforementioned glass, also unwisely)
  • Six mouse spinal columns (annihilated by mousetrap technology)
  • One blind, crippled, long-dying, pitifully prehistoric circa-2004 PowerBook G4 (cause of death hardware hash-up or system software seppuku)

SDH

I’m Scott David Herman, I’m an American living in Canada, and I’ve been running erasing.org since 1999.

The expatriate life is very glamorous. I live and work on the fifth floor of a mid-rise glass-and-concrete ant farm situated in the abandoned ruins of downtown Hamilton, that legendary city many call the most beautiful smoke-spewing slag heap in all of Southern Ontario.

I enjoy staring into open books, mentally rotating Shakespeare’s skeleton, stacking objects in my quote-unquote office, and chopping at the Parnassian permafrost in the company of my wife Laura.
