I’ve blogged about WordPress, the iPad, and pizza lately. I don’t know about you, but those are all topics I enjoy, but what else has been going on in my day-to-day world? I’m concerned about the on-going political battle in the United States. I’m not in favor of public sector … Continue reading →
What’s new? I’ve blogged about WordPress, the iPad, and pizza lately. I don’t know about you, but those are all topics I enjoy, but what else has been going on in my day-to-day world? I’m concerned about the on-going political battle in the United States. I’m not in favor of … Continue reading →
