Site updates
Well, whaddaya know.  Just got my feet wet setting up an online store for the site, and in the process designed a wall clock that actually looks kinda cool, so what the hell, it's for sale.

I actually just kinda made it for myself as a reminder that the rest of the world is big and has been around a long time, something to keep the current mess in perspective.  The characters are in Greek, Arabic, Mandarin, Cherokee, Babylonian, ASL, English, Mayan, Hindi, Roman, Thai, and Ethiopian, in that order.

My handwriting you'll have to forgive a little.  And yes, I had to look up most of them.  And man, Thai characters are harder to write than they look.

So, there it is.  Get 'em while they're hot.  You can click right on the clock, click here, or visit the link about to appear in the main menu.  I'll make more stuff now and again.  Fun!

At LAX security, overeager TSA guy actually frisked my PowerBar. (Happily, this is not a euphemism.)
