It's been a while since I did any writing or other creative stuff, but I plan on getting back into the swing of things.

To start with, I have started a new blog.

I am also updating my old blog.

Hopefully, I'll have some stories to offer before too long. Meanwhile, you can look at the pictures. ;-)

"What are you doing, son?"

Somehow, I managed to pick up a virus. I downloaded Clamwin (Clam antivirus for Windows -- an open source virus checker) and it went nuts telling me that just about every .exe, .scr (screen saver,) and maybe a few other types were infected. Not being one to goof around, I popped the Win 2K disk in, rebooted, and did a fresh install on my C: drive. It wasn't just any fresh load, though. I deleted the partition, reinstalled it, and formatted it with NTFS.

I've been having trouble getting on line. I downloaded a bunch of stuff at the library, but that required the use of an anonymous server. They have this whole site blocked. I couldn't log on through the anonymous server. None of the anon servers let me log on to my account.

Looking for new comments is addicting. They fell off all too quickly, so I grabbed a story from my [author] directory (there's more where those came from) and posted it. As a bonus, I think I figured out how to properly post the HTML stuff.

Well, sort of. It didn't like my indented paragraphs. Oh well.
