Ignore this

I'm having this moment... This must be what 'meta' feels like....
--When someone sends out a 'tech lol' and the joke turns out to be fact that the person thought it was an lol at all. So now I'm going to lol at the people who lol at the content of the joke.
Fuck, I think I just became a netizen.

So I taught my computer to write poetry.  It's a little rough around the edges, but even Wordsworth ran his shit past an editor.  Did you hear that bit about Wordsworth (or maybe Byron, --who cares)? A copy editor corrected a split infinitive and he was so pissed he demanded the guy be fired, saying, "I care not whether he chooses to go quickly, or to quickly go."

His name's localhost, and if you drop me a line, I'll ask him to write one for you, too.

Introduction and crap

So this is my blog about ... stuff.  Those who know the old cfcentral / happybunnyracing site know what to expect.  For the rest of you, make note of the unsubscribe link on the lower part of your screen.  I recommend circling it with a magic marker, maybe a Sharpie or Skerple.

Side note, I discovered that in May 2015, I created this blogger account and blog called Jaded Stepdad.  I have no memory of doing this. Because it came out of my head, and I have to live in here, I can figure out why I would have done it. Fishing through all the random scraps of paper splattered with the gooey residue of emotional breakdowns, I can see that I got blind drunk, resolved to share my paranoid experiences with the world, created the account, and then passed out on my office floor.

You can't make a [redacted] without [redacted] some [redacted].

Anyway, come back to me, baby.  I swear TIWTA will be totally different.

Past failure is not an indicator of future success.
