Leigh is…. but I am not… blocked in China. The Great Firewall of China is a site to test URLs if they are ones being censored by the Chinese government. I guess I am not being subversive enough. [The Aim] of this website is to be a watchdog and keep track of which and how […]

And it was a chance to meet someone whom I’ve corresponded through mostly blog comments, going back to August, another runner who had found my sad tale of marathon attemptage. So we […]
I sat down to the computer tonight to take care of some quick tasks. What a cool surprise in that one of by blog run projects, the NMC Virtual Worlds site got included in a list of “Truly Unique and Outstanding Blogs” (Ouch, sounds a bit like a 5% Point thang). Taking a peek at […]
