Obviously I’m messing around with things. This one is okay, except that the font for the sidebars is wrong, and the color for the calendars HAS to go. It’s someone else’s free template, but I can customize all the critical elements.
Stay tuned. Expect horrors.

 
I know I wrote about this years ago, and I doubt I’ve anything new to add – except that you can get the show on Netflix, and you might want to. It’s called “The Royle Family,” a British comedy from the late 90s. Upper-lower class Mancunians, or perhaps lower-middle class Mancunians, observed in their natural [...]

I’d put it here, but what’s the point of having site about it? Besides, the very short flash clip is embedded right there in the site. Enjoy – it’s HERE.

Really, Minot.

Ha ha! You’re an outmoded medium! You didn’t try to make money! I’m not here to refight the information wars of the 90s and early Oughts, which newspapers clearly fumbled – while they were missing the boat to get [...]

 
This week’s Curious Lucre: Nepal! You’ll learn things. Unless you knew them already. Go HERE.

Hellaciously busy evening, which explains the lack of a commercial break. Column, video editing, piano practice, and last minute OH RIGHT writing on the weekly Curious Lucre update. Nevertheless, expect the usual quantity today – once the column’s done, anyway.
Designing a skin for your Flip camera is a daunting thing, because you have to live [...]
