Inspiring? Moi???
Judith Heartsong has bestowed upon me the Inspirational Blogger Award, which is rather like the Thinking Blogger Award, only it rewards, you know, inspiration. I’m tremendously flattered, inasmuch as I find it amazing anyone would be inspired by my blatherings … Continue reading →
The stupid! It burns!!!
It’s official, folks, and I can no longer deny it. I am a complete idiot, and am no longer fit to sully the doorsteps of Blogistan. This is the Jason I had in mind, so if he has any interest … Continue reading →
