Back in the saddle again!

I’m back, personal crisis averted, friends. At the beginning of 2010 I became very frustrated with this blog and there were a few very specific things that contributed. First of all, I am not impressed with the change of hands that happened with Lala. Apple’s attempt to move to a more “cloud-based” streaming music service [...]

I am completely brain dead today, so I don’t have much to say. Enjoy the song, though! I Became a Prostitute – The Tw…

A Memory and a Story: Jerry Fuchs

There are times when I do things that seem reckless and spontaneous, defying my own good sense. October 7, 2009 was one of those times.

It’s official.

There are very few things in the technology world that I love more than my iPod and open source coding. What you’re finally seeing on my page now is the beginnings of my journey into coding CSS for WordPress, and thanks to Ian Stewart, I’ve stumbled upon a framework that is so incredibly functional and [...]
