cc licensed ( BY ) flickr photo shared by Andy Wright My calendar has a reminder for my own life event; three years ago in 2011 was my last day of employment at NMC, the day after I set out into the Great Wide Open. Like most people, I have the decisions I deeply regret. […]
I’m behind on sharing this wee bit of CogDog webcrapcraft — Mariana Funes asked me to redesign her online presence page. This is the kind fo stuff I do know to make a few kibbles and bits. Her previous one (which sadly I did not save a screen shot for the “before” photo) was a […]

Steve Krause and Charlie Lowe emailed me sometime […]

My family calendar, now on Google, reminds me that tomorrow is the day my mother’s father passed away, in 1957, years before I was even born. I guess you can say he would have been something like 112 years old. I hardly know much about Harry. He emigrated from Poland in the early part of […]
