Ok, it’s not your traditional ‘release’ of software. I am in the process of starting up another site on a topic Kim and I both feel passionate about: organics.
I am putting more effort into getting organicreviews.org off the ground and have updated the site. If you have trouble finding it, just click on http://organicreviews.org and [...]

So click on over to our Auctiva Store and bid on [...]
I just got done with the last days of the Philly/New York/Manheim/Lititz/Kleinfeltersville photos. Click here for the photo gallery. I some how managed to limit it to 110 pictures.
I’ve added some more blogs to the blogroll. “What’s a blogroll?” you ask? And should there be two question marks in that sentence? I’m not sure on the second answer and I only figured out what a blogroll was myself when I started this blog. It’s a little sidebar widget thingy where you can post [...]
