Not An End - Spores, Molds, and Fungus
http://incisivis.livejournal.com/515740.html
Spores, Molds, and Fungus. November 24th, 2013. I know I’ve addressed most of this before, but I wanted to say it again. For the past couple years, my blogging output has shrunk to almost nothing. Which I felt a wee bit self-conscious about, and made note of, but not enough to change it or go on hiatus. Now, these days, while I still have all these geeky thoughts, I don't feel motivated to put 'em down on paper, at even the slow rate I've been doing it. 2013-11-25 02:21 am (UTC).

Terrorism, we are to be told, is where the TSA is not." - Regyt. Baba Yaga, J.D. 09:59 am December 28th, 2009. Terrorism, we are to be told, is where the TSA is not.". The new TSA regulations seriously deter me from ever wanting to fly again. It took some stubborn clenching of the teeth and remember how much I love the people involved to not immediately write off traveling for two weddings across the country this summer. Dave's friend Mauro had a great comment on the matter:. The God is where you are not.
