I have not been kidnapped by pirates!


Contrary to popular belief, I have not been kidnapped by pirates or set off to join the French Foreign Legion. I apologize for not tending to my blog sooner, well ok, not really. I have been waiting for some momentous occasion to blog about, and that moment has finally arrived. Congratulations to Tyson for releasing his long awaited debut CD, "The Difference Engine". I am sure this is news to all of you. Please buy several copies from CDBaby, that way he won't threaten Ethan Daniel Davidson's record for most CD's given away for free in a single month. Anyway, in honor of this achievement, I am offering a Tyson retrospective. Enjoy.

I think Cory is going to rue the day he taught me to do a few things in PhotoShop. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Also, thanks to Tysons "Two Links" blog, I think I have a new logo for my blog, courtesy of DrawerGeeks.com. Let me know what you think. Anyway, I hope everyone had a very merry Christmas and has a very happy, safe and prosperous New Year!

Hello world.

In the beginning was the command line...

Anyway, here I am. After seemingly years of encouragement, cajoling, harassment, sleepless nights and threats of physical violence, I have finally succumbed to peer pressure and joined the world of blogs. I am not quite sure what I am going to do with this thing yet, but hopefully it won't completely suck. If you would like to see what a real, thoughtful and well-crafted blog looks like, I have provided some links over there =>, to the right of the page. Over the next few weeks I plan on getting to know my blog by experimenting with various colors and fonts. Feel free to provide me with any comments or feedback/hints/tips/sarcastic remarks. Like my houseplants, I promise (mostly) to "water" or "update" my blog at least once a month so that it does not wither and die. I would like to thank Tyson for inspiring me to start the blog through the previously mentioned threats of physical violence and Cory for helping me realize the dream by creating the above banner and showing me how my computer actually works. And as always, I would like to thank Blackthorn for helping me get through all of this. Thank you!
