I’ll be moving off the main page of ockhamist.com, leaving movable type and my bloated mess behind.
 
Madness! 

This took some doing!
 
I plan on using a domain forward to get the main page here when I am ready.
Oh, yeah, and I am going to go to Hong Kong in three weeks!

I went to Morocco in 2004.  Here is a partial record:
All of the Morocco Pics. Some of the code is bad.
Best Pics of Morocco, part one, part two, part three, and part four.
 
I went to Ireland in 2005.

Refresh the page, and new chins appear.  I’ve never been so proud.

Forgive the meta-blogging, but the webpage is working out great. Lots of you guys are reading it, according to the stats (I’ll have more acurate numbers when June starts and I’m done loading the page ten times a day to check changes in colors, fonts, et al). Hits are going to skyrocket when I […]

“American Idol” is over, for a few months anyway. Enter the knock-off shows.

“Lost” ended their season last night with (hold your breath) more unanswered questions!
US House Speaker Dennis Hastert is, or is not, under investigation. Somehow the ABCnews/DNC got the attention off the guy who took a bribe on tape.
Lack of sleep associated with weight […]
