With the intention of ensuring that people don't lose all hope that new posts will ever arrive, I was about to put up a message over at the Mister Lester Keen blog called "This Blog's Not Dead, It's Just Really Sleepy"... but then both because that sounded really catchy, and in the interest of not having to post that same message every so often, This Blog's Not Dead, It's Just Really Sleepy has been born.

Expect posts sometimes.
