What’s This Banner Doing Here?

Thursday, October 26th, 2006

I’ve considered putting a ONE banner on the site for a while but I tend to be slow moving when it comes to updating the look and feel as well as software updates when it comes to the blog. Writing the entries takes long enough so I tend not to find the time and […]

Yes, ‘62 was a magical season,
Wondrous beyond any logic or reason.
Onward remembrances from way-back-when go,
Echoing groans and the cry “Yo lo tengo!”
