Why your movable type blog must die.
So Noel has this interesting link to a rant about how movable type sucks and bloggers, that is, people who blog, suck, etc. Now not being a technocrat I don’t understand much of the ranting but I find it really amusing that people can get that bent out of shape about someone else’s personal journal.…

So, the colors here
Chey looked at this site yesterday evening and said to me, “So, why don’t you ask me when you redesign this page? I don’t like these colors.” I found it sort of funny. I pictured myself sneaking upstairs at midnight, my wife sleeping soundly in bed. How peaceful. Then, I would put my hand gently…

A group of young pistol shooters from the Ottowa Sportsmen’s Club in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan performed well at the National Pistol Championships at Camp Perry, Ohio, this past week.
