Station in the Metro

  • Pardon our dust.

    While this whole Redesign in Realtime™ is going on, you may notice more than a passing resemblance of this site to Jeremy Hedley’s great weblog, Antipixel. There’s a reason for that.

    Since Antipixel is one of the sites that I admire so much, I am temporarily borrowing his stylesheet to teach myself how this whole Movable-Type-slash-CSS thing works. Don’t worry, Jeremy… I am in the process of melding and morphing nearly every part of this current design into something a lot more like the old site. I have no intention of stealing your design. (At least not completely… there are a few good ideas I may have a hard time letting go of.) I just find it a lot easier to learn this whole thing when I have such a splendid example to work from.

    Thanks, Jeremy!

  • It’s all coming together�

    I […]

  • Shiny new cell phone, same old number

    Well, it’s not new honestly— it belonged to my wife. But it is in fact shiny, so there’s that.

    Anyway, the upshot is for all of you who tried to call me in the last week or so, but couldn’t get ahold of me because my damn Treo wouldn’t ring on incoming calls (amidst other freaky nonsense, likely resulting from some, er… percussive maintenance), that situation has now abated.

    It’s still the same number, so feel free to call with abandon.
