Hello, world! This blog began on September 28, 2007, and so far nobody has come looking for me with tar and feathers.

as long as your discourse is civil and your language is not blue.
Happy reading, and come back often!
And whether my cup is half full or half empty, fill my cup, Lord.

Formez vos bataillons,
Marchons, marchons !
Qu'un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons !
