Backfill
Hi everyone! As Tod mentioned, he’s taking a week’s holiday from the blog, and I’ll be sitting in. So, give me a few minutes to retrieve my password from Blake’s fortress of solitude, put on my Castro blogging hat, learn Dalet, and I’ll see what I can dig up. I should be able to keep this thing limping along for a bit, but if you have any tips please send them my way. (If he’s smart, Tod won’t be checking his e-mail, so please don’t use the contact form to the right.) Cheers.
