My Dangerous Career

Welcome Back!

No Comments »

I’m back, yet again, but for real this time! I promise. My vanity project called this here blog has undergone a major facelift of late, as I figured that if I took the multiple hours to hack together my first WordPress theme from scratch, I’d darn well better use the thing. So, here’s what’s probably the tenth “back to posting” note, complete with the obligatory picture of the blog’s patron saint and namesake, Kenneth Patchen.

Pardon the construction dust as I’m still working on bits & pieces here and there. Next big task is to slay all the IE bugs I’ve ignored to this point. So, if you’re viewing this via IE (shame, shame, shame on you if you are; might I introduce you to your new best friend, Firefox), please bear with the kooky alignment of the pretty boxes. IE doesn’t hang with the rest of the CSS-compliant cool kids, so he’s a bit behind the times when it comes to pure CSS layouts. Goodness me isn’t that such an uber-geek thing to say?

Real blogging will commence in the very near future, as I try to stick to my personal commitment (not not not a New Year’s resolution - ick hate those) to post at least three times a week. I’ll be tossing out bon mots, rants, lengthy musings, and brief observations about topics near to my heart or central to my work. If you’re curious to know what I’m reading, eating, drinking, or otherwise doing to occupy my time, head on over to the “What’s Up?” page for regular updates on that sort of minutae.

So, stay tuned. Until then, I leave you with words from Saint Patchen himself:

“I am the world-crier and this is my dangerous career…I am the one to call your bluff, and this is my climate.”
