Check out the cover art for LINES OF DEPARTURE: There’s also a new cover for the re-release of TERMS OF ENLISTMENT, but it doesn’t show on the Amazon page yet. You can see it in the search results when you look for “Terms of Enlistment” on Amazon, though.
in which I incur the wrath of steve’s ghost.
In today’s installment of the Munchkin Wrangler Gear Whore Labs reviews, I will share with you my opinion of the Microsoft Surface. I have a new review policy in place. All items I review in this spot—books, toys, gear, whatever—are paid for by my own cash, not provided to me by someone else. And I…
puppy play.
Henry and Ygraine doing what they do most of the day. (Ignore the messy floor, which I’ve TOTALLY PICKED UP since then.) This fiber-optic connection kicks ass. That was a 153MB video straight from the iPhone, and it uploaded to YouTube in a minute or so. 50Mbps download speed is very nice, but 25Mbps…
ot-nay oo-tay ight-bray.
We had a door put into the back wall of our garage. it has a doggy flap in it, so the dogs can get into the fenced-in yard from the garage without anyone having to let them out through the porch door. It’s interesting to see the ability of the dogs to adjust to this…

Back from the shop: my well-worn Benchmade 2550 automatic folder. A few months ago, the automatic opening feature turned itself off by way of the mainspring snapping in half. Due to the stupid-ass federal law on shipping switchblades across state lines, I couldn’t send it back to Benchmade to get fixed, so I tossed it…

Forget that angle. This is private commerce, not the Obamacare website. It’s called “Measures of Absolution”….
beams of light.
Castle Frostbite just got a major Internet upgrade: I opted for the 50Mbps down/25Mbps up package, and as you can see, Speedtest says we’re getting pretty close to that. Our DSL line was 1.5Mbps down/0.75Mbps up, so this is a significant jump in bandwidth. And look at that latency. It’s a thing of beauty.
puppeh update.
As you can see, young Lady Ygraine isn’t slowed down much by her pneumonia treatment.
puppeh!
So we got a new puppy: That’s little Ygraine. She’s twelve weeks old, very sweet and fearlessly curious. Her first night at the Castle was as easy as you could wish for–she curled up in her crate and slept most of the night without a peep. We got Ygraine as a companion for Henry, to…
