Rational Conservatism from the Rocky Mountains
I am starting to realize that I have an enormous investment in electronics. When you consider the laptop computer I’m typing this on, plus the laptop my wife has and the desktop computers my kids have (not to mention the retired computers that nobody uses anymore) and then add in the television, the iPods (the [...]
Hmm… I see that the last post on the blog is the one on iPod earbuds. I am pretty sure I posted some entries last night, but I don’t see them now. Of course now I can say that those lost posts were the most brilliant essays I’ve ever written, now lost to the bit [...]
