Every production of an artist should be the expression of an adventure of his soul.
—W. Somerset Maugham

Inside you will find that I write for two reasons. First, for my own entertainment, and second, to popularize subjects that interest me.

You will not find unique insights or new twists on the ideas of others. For such is far beyond my abilities.

Floating down-river,

The universe may have a purpose, but nothing we know suggests that, if so, this purpose has any similarity to ours. —Bertrand Russell

My Blog

Everyone has a blog don't they? My entries are short notes with no apparent theme.

My Poetry

I've been writing bizarre and only-semi-meaningless poetry for years. Good therapy, I suppose.

My Family

When my daughter was born, I started an online journal for family and relatives in other lands to keep in touch. I've kept it going through the birth of my son and am now pushing six years of fatherly attention. Sorry, but it is only for family and friends with an account.

Philosophical Notes

Pretentious and preposterous ... Whimsical and udderly whacked. Everyone has a philosophy. I'm trying to make notes of some of mine.

Technical Notes

Software engineer by trade, I keep notes on things like Java, Eclipse, Linux and my beloved Macintosh.
