African or European?

I love Monty Python.  The Life of Brian, easily the most heretical movie I’ve seen, has been called the best comedy movie.  Monty Python and the Holy Grail is also very funny (but doesn’t push the envelope in the same way).  This is one of my favorite scenes from that movie.

Facebook Games

So I don’t have to repeat myself elsewhere… I like you.  I enjoy sharing interesting stories and pictures with you.  I’ll like your posts and sometimes comment on them.  I’ll even chat with you.

The TSF Site Needs Help

In 2010 I will be the chairman of the Troy Strawberry Festival. How I learned about that honor is a story for a different day. What I find interesting at this point is that there is so little ‘web presence’ for the event. Google Strawberry Festival. This is the SERP as of today: What’s nice …
