In the latest migration to a new virtual private server, some of the links to images in the earliest posts to this blog were broken. If you encounter one of these broken links, please let me know. I have backups and can restore the images.

Philly reminds me of Dallas. The Dallas/Ft.Worth metro area is over 6 million in population. That’s more than the whole STATE of Colorado. (Plus, we have scenery here where Texas has oil rigs) Despite the miserable cold, I’m staying here.
