In over a decade of blogging since 2003 i’ve gone through periods ranging from posting once a day all the way to mostly recently taking a two and a half year break and not posting a thing. Everything from the delirious to the down right sensible has been posted, and quite a bit of it is out-of-date. I have however kept the most popular posts below.
