The Second Youngest Professor -- And my newest video

So, a new video today.


Those who know and tolerate me also know that I was unceremoniously booted from a Ph.D. program in history from a certain University in New England (I was A.B.D. at the time, btw. The term “b*st*rds” does spring to mind).


I’ve never forgiven the professors responsible, but as time has gone on, and I’ve realized how awful life in the academy has become in recent years…I’ve actually begun to wonder if they did me a favor.


This video is a brief meditation on that. It involves an individual who discovers that, after all, maybe being successful in life is rather more pleasurable than being the victor in a great game of Who’s Afraid Of Virginia Woolf.

Walking To Wimberley

Welcome to Wimberley, Texas—where the cypress trees lean over lazy rivers, the cowboy boots are ten feet tall (and painted like rainbows), and the coffee shops echo with guitars and gossip.

In Walking to Wimberley, Michael Jay Tucker invites you to join him on a meandering, thoughtful, and often hilarious journey through one of Texas’s most charming Hill Country towns. Based on his popular blog entries, this collection of travel essays explores Wimberley’s art, history, music, and mystery—with the dry wit of a seasoned traveler and the wide-eyed wonder of a first-time visitor.

 

Whether he’s hunting for the perfect taco, pondering the existential meaning of oversized footwear, or just trying to find parking on market day, Tucker brings Wimberley to life with style, warmth, and just a hint of mischief.

Come for the scenery. Stay for the stories. Bring your boots.
