The idea is delightfully simple: for 30 days, you post once a day in response to a book-themed question.
DAY 1. – A book series you wish had gone on longer OR a book series you wish would just end already.
Welcome to my Blog
This is actually Version 4 of my blog.
- Version 1: Was hand coded posts on my original Website back in the early 90’s before the term Blog was even invented.
- Version 2: Was on Livejournal
- Version 3: Was on the three-Ninjas site
- Version 4: (And hopefully final version) is here!

My Livejournal is Legally Allowed to Drink in the States
I received an email today informing me that my LiveJournal account, yes, that ancient digital relic, has officially turned 21. Twenty-one. As in, legally allowed to drink in every jurisdiction that still pretends LiveJournal is a thing. I had...
Happy 20th Masonic Anniversary
Today marks my 20th anniversary of joining Freemasonry. On the 2nd of February 2006, I arrived at the Masonic Hall in Ruabon at 6pm, suited up and not entirely sure what I was walking into. That evening I was initiated into Llannerch Lodge in the...
WAR HAS BEEN DECLARED

In Scotland its Burns Night, In Wales Carpet Burns Night
To the Welsh among us: “Happy Santes Dwynwen Day!”May your love be as enduring as a slate roof in a storm and your pronunciation confuse at least three Englishmen before lunchtime. To the Scots: “Happy Rabbie Burns Day/Night!”May your haggis be...
