This blog is a place to put my stream of consciousness thoughts about life, politics, technology, and cats, published 6 days a week (not on Shabbos, or Yom Tovim).<\/p>\n
It’s a posting ground for my more-or-less annual personal newsletter, 40 Years in the Desert<\/a>. (PDF archives available at link)<\/p>\n I find that if I wait until year’s end I miss stuff from earlier in the year, so I use this blog to keep track of material that is potentially of interest for the newsletter. If it’s the goings on of my family, it gets the tag family<\/a>. If it’s of interest, but unrelated to family happenings, I use some weird news stories, it gets the tag 40yrs<\/a>.<\/p>\n 40 Years<\/span> is put out the old fashioned way, it’s printed out on one sheet of ledger sized (11″x17″) paper folded into 4 pages and mailed to people, total circulation of about 100.<\/p>\n I’m just not the holiday card kind of guy. A warning, if you comment here, I may use it in my paper publication.<\/p>\n You will get credit, and if I can find you you will get at least the issue where you are quoted (probably a lot more, I rarely trim my list).<\/p>\n If someone actually wants to pay for an issue…I don’t know, I guess a buck, but you can get the PDF’s free.<\/p>\n If someone actually wants to pay for an issue…I don’t know, I guess a buck covers printing and shipping.<\/p>\n This post will be repeated on a monthly basis.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" This blog is a place to put my stream of consciousness thoughts about life, politics, technology, and cats, published 6 days a week (not on Shabbos, or Yom Tovim).
