60 days already?


h1 Wednesday, October 26th, 2005

I think it’s a good idea to write a post once every 2 months whether I need to or not.  I think it’s only fair.

The sad thing is that I really have too much to do to take the time and come up with something deep and thought provoking.  Boston Webcam So, instead of that, I’ll just point out the new webcam in the sidebar. That’s the view out my window in Boston and it should update about once every hour.  Well, every hour that I have my laptop hooked up to the camera.  Check out the fall colors and leaves that are everywhere from the remnants of hurricane Wilma that blew through yesterday.  Nice, eh?

OK.  Back to the grindstone. 

Fun new Blog Feature

I know I’ve been really bad about posting lately, OK - always, but I do have a few really nice posts waiting to be completed in the drafts section of blogger. That should count for something.

In the meantime, I did come across a really nifty plugin for iTunes that will post what I’m currently listening to. It even puts up the album art and nifty links so you can purchase the song yourself.

Perhaps this will cause me to cast a more critical eye on my playlist so as to not be embarrassed by the information revealed here. I’m sure Abby hopes so.

Is this thing on?

OK, so I’ve been putting off making an actual post for months now. It’s not that I don’t have things to say. If you know me you know that is rarely the case. In an attempt to procrastinate, and a right successful one at that, I came up with the idea that I needed some big, glorious, history changing post to get things started.

Sure, that’s all crap, but it’s quite a handy way to avoid doing something. But times, they are a changing…

Tonight, Abby and I went to the Memphis "Blogger Bash" and in talking over my lack of posting with Peggy and Len I’ve decided I need to just jump in. A few posts from now, this less earth shattering post will have moved into the archives and I can join the world of the "blogosphere."

Wait a minute. Blogosphere? That’s such a dumb ass term. Blogosphere. Who the hell came up with that? What do you know? Turns out it was William Click. I don’t care if he does share the same name as my step father, it’s stupid and I refuse to have any part of it. Forget I said anything at all.

Nonetheless, it’s great to be here.

This may not be the sort of post to move the hearts and minds of the world but it’s a start anyway. I’d like to send out a heart felt thanks to everyone at Cafe Francisco for all of their inspiration and encouragement to actually get the dust off this site.

And a special thanks to Mick for the nifty yo-yo parting gift.

More to come. I swear.
