I often think it would be cool to chronicle my projects here, since I enjoy reading about such things elsewhere, but then I drop the idea because I have a tendency to stall out on my projects. But I really would like to make progress on and complete something, so perhaps that thought should change.

Happy New Year
It seems like I may never actually complete a side project. I may not be disciplined enough, or may be lacking in some other area. But that doesn’t seem like a good excuse not to try.
Spam Comments
A lot of spam comments get blocked here. I can see them, and it’s kind of amusing how many lately attempt to use flattery to get approved. Things like “your writing is great” on a page with just a list of games I’m playing and have played. Not very believable in many cases, but I [...]

We’re back from our trip to Seattle. We got back Tuesday last week [at least, it was last week when I first wrote this sentence], but brought with us a flu, perhaps the “PAX Pox” as some are calling it, so this post has been unstarted for a while.

So I’m on Twitter now. Maybe I’ll use that a little more frequently than I post here? Anyway my username is SharedProphet, on both Twitter and Facebook (they let you have a username on Facebook now to make it easier for people to find you).
