Blog of the Little Bonsai

Personal Blog of Steve Baumber

Five months. That's some kind of record. That's long enough to lose those readers who were keeping my blog in their favourites to see if Rosemary and I magically started trekking in Burma or something. We didn't (sorry). Hence now I'm back to entertaining people who only want to voyeuristically know what we're doing or have done recently in a more mundane setting. Or for those who think my blog is amusing. So I'll write about someone other than us in an amusing fashion.

My cousin Tristram recently published a book. Well, it's actually a web-based comic turned into an "order the book online and a company will print it when you order it and then send it to you" for a certain number of US dollars. Read it online for free. The comic is by both Trit and his friend Peter, although Trit assures me he does everything. Peter stands by his elbow and chuckles as the strip takes shape and murmurs "Oh, that's good!" at which point Trit shushes him.

As you can see Rosemary and I delight in the zany antics of the characters in 'Benson', and there is no substitute for a printed tome to enjoy on the couch. However, please don't buy the book. If you do, it will become popular and they will print another one which means I will have to shell out more money over the internet or Trit will think I'm not supporting him and he will do something artsy and drastic. Most likely to Peter. You see my point? For Pete's sake don't buy the book.

Anyway, I hope to Blog more consistently now, post the odd picture and keep y'all up to date on our (or my) goings on's. For instance we recently had pizza for dinner. It was tastey and in no way resembled eating in Myanmar.
