Regular readers of the all aspect report know that from time to time I indulge my inner Dave Barry and drop something on the humorous side, such as my take on the troubling trend of Gen Z women resorting to stealing men’s salads in an effort to get dates with them, and my recent adventures in shopping for underwear on Amazon (I sent that post to the mighty Dave himself, who responded that it made him laugh; I can die a happy man). The latest such installment, Confessions of a Recovering Lawyer, is coming on Monday.

The report now features a page called “Les Bons Mots (Fun & Games)” where I’ve collected those posts. You can find it under a new drop down menu at the top of the page called “Diversions.” Because the world is such a damn gloomy place these days, I’ll be putting more effort into those, term, efforts in the future.

On an even more random note, I’ve also created a Poetry Archive where you can explore some of my efforts at verse (don’t expect much; it’s purely self-indulgent). I’ve tinkered with poetry for a long time, and since the likelihood of getting an actual book deal for a volume of poetry these days is about the same as the likelihood that I will perfect cold fusion, I decided to give some of the results of that tinkering space to live and breathe. I’ll be adding to that page from time to time, too. You can find the page under the “Diversions” drop down, too.

Finally, in the coming months I plan to start publishing work by other journalists, writers, explorers and general bon vivants (I’m leaning into the French vibe for some reason). If you’d like your work to be considered for the Most Important Blog On The Internet Ever, drop a line to allaspectreport@gmail.com with an idea, pitch or completed piece.

I hope anyone enjoys the new, expanded features! Feel free to provide feedback in the comments or email them to the address above. As always, please like, subscribe and/or consider buying me a coffee or contributing to help keep the all aspect report humming along.
