Today I opened the mailbox and took out a new toy tool. If this were a review, I’d say, “The Verbatim Ultraslim Bluetooth Keyboard is not as bad as everyone says.” Granted, my hands aren’t that big. It reminds me of a slightly smaller laptop keyboard. Yes, the backspace and… Continue reading
In the last week, I’ve done a lot of editing, graphics, and other work on this site, rather than writing. I could tell you in detail what I did today, for instance, but I broke my brain. It’s not a matter of writing php that writes javascript to increment images… Continue reading
This week, I had an interesting time traveling in, well, time. I think it’s time to put up the travel stained safari clothes and go on with the present. I may mine Live Journal and a few other places for material later–hopefully it won’t mess up the post order and… Continue reading
