Keep It Regular
Stringing stories together. I like pouring drops into the bucket of my shared universe. I know I have written before of how I would love for people to one day discover the true scope of all these stories and all the connections…
Am I a dirty liberal? I am not party affiliated – that is for sure. Am I entirely permissive? I don’t think so. But here’s the thing – I believe that anything you force someone to do is going to be something…
Microsoft are a pain in the arse. I am sure that this is not news to anyone. This insistence that they break other programs on a computer is obnoxious though. Hewlett Packard made this machine – not Microsoft, so why should Windows…
