What good is a post without a title?

I was going to write something today. Really I was.
Seeing as how I haven’t written anything in a few days I figured it was about time to start fumbling dancing my fingers over the keyboard, writing up another piece of brilliance for all to see. I thought that might be a good thing to [...]

Goodbye Green Mountain Geek

Once upon a time, back in 2008 sometime, I had an inspiration to split off all my technical/geekish type posts from this site and give them a home on site of their own. Thus was born “Green Mountain Geek” (Okay, it was a stupid name. I was eating Brussels sprouts at the time I thought [...]

I’ve given it a lot of thought

Thank you for your patience

Obviously I haven’t posted for the last several days. There’s a simple reason for this.
I haven’t felt all that well.
In fact, I’ve felt absolutely lousy and yes, it has to do with those blasted disabilities of mine (may they rot in whatever area of hell is reserved for disabilities that hinder the lives of man). [...]
