Number 100!
| Hey, it’s my 100th blog entry! I don’t have any pictures of ticker tape parades on hand, so the next best thing is to toss in a coffee mug from New York. Ok, it’s not quite the “next best thing”, but my camera phone is super convenient for quicky mug shots (bluetooth upload). |

For me, a blog is a nice outlet for writing, and that makes me happy. I don’t care if I’m on someone’s linky list. I’m doing it for me, Baby! Some of the time, I do pull some punches. I do scrap some ideas because it’s pretty cinchy to write a Rant. Life’s too short, most of the time (sometimes a rant can be fun. I think Jamie Zawinsky has more of a handle on the art than most.) I try to write about something positive, or funny. When I get lucky, I try to write something positively funny. Not likely to happen today, at this rate …
I recently got a comment on an old posting about Rubens Barichello, one of my favorite Formula One drivers. In a way, it’s a reminder to me to write more on F1, and on EPL Soccer. So I will! Getting a comment on such an old posting is also a nice reminder about the sort of net.history one puts out there - Each post can come back to visit.
Going forward, I want to get the look of this site sorted out, and will be using more photography. This blog will start grabbing photos out of my FlexiPhoto database at some point in the next month, as a demo of how to embed images with arbitrary scaling and quality. I do want to get away from a wall of text, day after day. I really do have more of a multimedia leaning than I have shown.
To those that have dropped by, thanks! I’ll keep writing, and will strive to keep evolving, and never get complacent. I’m in no rush to get to #200, and will enjoy the journey there. Cheers.
