When I set out to update my ancient, five-year-old site, I thought, “I’ll bet the Internet community is up to like HTML 5 or something by now!” and prepared myself to acquire a new HTML skill or two.

Ha.

The first few days went something like this:

“HTML?? Dude, that is like soooo 2007! You need to learn XHTML, now!!”

“XHTML?? You smokin’ 2008 weed, bra? He needs XML!!”

“Whachu talkin’ XML?? That went out way back in the spring, summer of 2009! I’d give up my PS3 Slim before I’d read an XML site! It’s PHP now, dog!”

So I dutifully jumped into the shark-invested waters of PHP, CSS, CMS, OMFG, WTF, and several other euphemisms for insanity. My learning curve quickly became an MC Escher pretzel and the life insurance premiums on my Mac went through the roof. However, just a few weeks and another hundred blood pressure points later, I’m (mostly) up and running! At least until the next, best, greatest programming standard kicks in, probably later tonight.

In the meantime, I hope readers get as much joy out of reading this site as I did in creating it.

Okay, maybe a bit more.
