A few years ago, while on a streak of otherwise very interesting Bill Bryson books, I came across his then-newly-in-paperback A Walk in the Woods, and it sparked my interest in one day hiking the Appalachian Trail.
Recently I’ve been trying to get fit, but I haven’t had any real goals to press me […]
So, today I’ve added a new colophon to the site. I also— oh… —ahem—
col•o•phon n. an inscription placed at the end of a book or manuscript usually with facts relative to its production
Anyway, I also noticed that this is, officially, my 250th post. Huzzah!
Oh, er…
huz•zah n. an expression or shout of acclaim— often used interjectionally to express joy or approbation
A new trend in email spam is to add a couple of random words from the dictionary to the end of the subject heading, which somehow appears to trick the spam filters into thinking it’s not spam.
