I hope everyone is having a happy Easter today. Me, I’m having a good day – especially since I’m not leaving for DC until tomorrow. I get a full day more to spend at home with my wife. For such blessings as this I am truly thankful. I hope you, too, are spending some time [...]

[BEGIN RANT] Some times, it seems that one never gets good news, only news about the slow, steady decline of one’s own situation.

These being the case, power supply and mother board. Since the replacement is so wide-ranging, I’ve decided to go small. Yes, that’s right: small. [...]

Now, I’m back in DC. Stayed home one ENTIRE night! Well, at least I can focus on work better now. Too bad I’ll be lonely. Now that I am back in the area, even though it was around 70 degrees yesterday, this morning it began blowing snow. It’s not that nice, dry snow either. It [...]
