Just a little family walk at the beach and everything is perfectly normal – if you consider walking in reverse to be a normal backwards.

Just a normal family walk.
Just a little family walk.

For Typhoon, backwards is normal.

Yes, that’s right, we have more photographic evidence of our Little Prince walking in reverse because that is just his style. Some dogs like to see where they are going, some like to see where they have been, and some–like His Haughtiness—like to keep an eye on the Hu-Dad.

Our Little Prince has style.

A Shark Attacked My Best Friend

June 20, 2025 - In honor of the 50th anniversary of the theatrical debut of the movie Jaws, the film that was the inspiration for these events, D. K. Wall recorded the story in audio and video. The original story was posted on October 9, 2022.

A shark attacked my best friend when I was 11. His screams were awful. The silence that followed was worse. I was alone in the ocean.
