Okay! Starting to get things figured out with mirroring my main site with my micro.blog site. Feeling much more comfortable with MB now.

My wife and I decided to take our Grand-daughter to the “Christkindle” German Christmas Market in Lawrenceville, GA this past weekend. Now, as a general rule I’m not terribly fond of these kinds of events because of the crowds and …

Saw a podcast on the BBC.com website this morning entitled “The Death of Reading”. I wonder if they recognize the irony …

It’s hard to believe, but in a few days, I will celebrate sixty-seven trips around the sun. I have now lived longer than both of my parents and several of my uncles. Given a family history of deaths at younger ages for the men, I’m just …

Remember when you were a kid and got a new pair of Keds? You just knew you could run faster and jump higher than you could before!

This is part 4 of an ongoing series on moving away from Windows and onto Linux. In this post we’ll take a look at what I consider the best Linux operating system for the average user.
