I love my local hardware store. Hubby and I can be there by foot in scant minutes, door to door. We get a lot of our non-food goods there; it is a desirable shopping experience and its presence is great for the neighborhood. When expressed my petro-solvent needs to the clerk at the register, he [...]
This theme — if you’re reading on January 29 or January 30, 2007 — is called Hemingway. Chuts, in his “day job site” uses a theme he based on this and I really like it. I’m about ready for a re-do and may cook up something from this basis. 30 January. Last night I created [...]

Like others, I have upgraded the software behind this blog to WordPress 2.1. The ability to toggle between “what you see is what you get” and the HTML (code) is a vast improvement.

Don Parris’s Penguin in the Pew is the only book I know that tries to introduce Linux to ministers and church workers, accordingly is one of the few places that challenges churches that steal proprietary software.
