I'm off! Hey, I heard that! As usual, I'll try to work on the blog some while I'm traveling. I have a new netbook computer that I'm using for the first time. Haven't had time to test it much, but it seems to be detecting my neighbors wireless networks. If there are no updates after this, then you know I'll be back up Monday evening.
Comments need to stay moderated. In the past I've created an open thread for the game, but it's just not possible right now.
