(tags: digg)

This site is not about animal husbandry.

…Just to allay any fears out there for potential employers, and, apparently my Intro to Design 2 instructor might have. The reason its called YakShaving is posted on the about section to the right.

The War on Terror vs The War on Poverty

It’s nice to put things into perspective sometimes, as this NY times article did for me last week.

Back in the saddle

Well, the fabulous 3 week holiday break comes to a close, and I’m reminded again of reality as I stepped out of the subway here in Chicago, where it is easily 25 degrees colder than it was in Philadelphia.
