The server went bottoms up on Monday. Started up, only to go down again on Tuesday, this time permanently. Thankfully, the RAID array is intact. Two days and $20 later, a new motherboard is installed (Craigslist rocks), and everything is up and running again. To everyone who emailed, worrying about the club or the gallery - thanks for your support.

The holidays are a success: I got to sleep late for several days in a row.

Autumn.

Raking brown leaves.

Front yard: a tiny open lawn, one tree and a flock of bushes. Three bags of leaves.

Back yard: five times the size surrounded by a two metre fence, three big trees. Only two bags of leaves.

How does that add up?

This is a sign on a coffee shop on a busy plaza next to a Home Depot.
So much for an educated society.
