I think it’s been raining for the past week or so here in Pittsburgh, and everything is damp and waterlogged. The slugs love it though!

Travelogue [...]Walking across the street today, a woman with a british accent asked me where the Post Office was.
I wasn’t sure, and as I looked up, there is Michael York. He’s in town with his wife for a run at the Benedum, in Camelot. I looked at him [...]

In the late 1980s I worked at a then-dominant check printing company’s distribution and web press operation a bit west of St Louis, in St Chuck county.
In t hose days, everybody had to order checks and use them across counters at grocery stores, retail, and to pay bills. On-line billing [...]
…and that means ‘yes’.
Nod your head, and that means ‘no’.
