Sorry about that. Been offline for a while.

Minor fracas with the chaps at Register.com over domain renewal/transfer. It's a long story. Worth a good rant if I had the time and/or energy to do it. Frankly, a little too tired to argue with the praetorian racketeers any more.

Normal service will be resumed just as soon as abnormal levels of workload subside.

Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers...

...pray for pretzels equal to your tasks.

Click that link, right now, to send a congratulatory gift to the White House.

(Tip o' the hat to Peter Setchell for this truly wonderful idea).

"It is the absolute right of the State to supervise the formation of public opinion."

- Joseph Goebbels

Stop reading blogs and VOTE

"So long as the people do not care to exercise their freedom, those who wish
to tyrannize will do so; for tyrants are active and ardent, and will devote
themselves in the name of any number of gods, religious and otherwise, to
put shackles upon sleeping men."

- Voltairine de Cleyre

If you're qualified to vote in the U.S. - PLEASE get out there and do so.

Yes - I know the quote is taken out of context, and yes, I'm fully aware that Voltairine was an anarchist - but they're still good and apposite words for the situation at hand. Click the link above if you want to read the full essay from which the quote is lifted (but only after you've been to the polling station).

Vote now. Exercise your freedom.
