Should you dig back through my archives, please keep in mind that the further in the past a post was published, the more likely it is that the information has become outdated or my beliefs have changed. I sincerely believe that learning, growing, examining, and often changing beliefs is an integral part of being a responsible human being. My personal journey socially and politically has been ever leftwards, and there are many posts in the archives that I would not write the same way today, if at all. Thanks for understanding!

- Summer Vacation Part One As noted before, I posted these backwards, but here are the photos from the first part of our summer vacation. We spent four nights at Seaquest State Park (and had two of our nieces and their mom join us for two of those nights), wandering the woods and driving up to visit Mount St. Helens. ➡

- Ten Tech Items Inspired by Science Fiction I WAS going to ask you to research whether or not there have been any women in Sci-Fi but I have answered that myself, having found Flash Gordon's moll. However it is a Sci-Fi question. Can you list 10 real technological 'things' that have reputedly come out of Sci-Fi stuff written in the 20th Century? ➡

- www.michaelhanscom.com Eclecticism is now residing at www.michaelhanscom.com! Even better, the old address of djwudi.typepad.com will still work as a backup, so any links out there pointing my way will still work, without any issues whatsoever. ➡
- Dean 'near-perfect' in latest debate The thought of that lying, hedging, mealymouthed stumblebum of a president trying to go up against the confidence, poise, and fire that Dean so often shows (and is apparently getting much better at as things progress) is incredibly amusing. ➡

- Search re-enabled I know that the majority of my posts lately have been site-oriented, and are probably insanely boring, but...well...from time to time, I fall into full-on-'geek mode'. Just bear with me. ➡
- 9-11 tributes Several sites across the 'net are altering their front pages as a tribute to the 9-11 attacks. Some aren't bad, some seem to be pretty ridiculous (to me, at least). ➡
