Regular blogging will resume shortly, as soon as I get the new site structure up, which I hope will be soon. As part of my “career development” I’ve been playing a lot with Django and Python and should have some cool things coming down the pipe. (Though, alas, only on the “personal” front at this point.)
In the meantime, I’ve come across a few things that have made me love the fluidity of English even more than I already did. I heard someone on NPR ask for someone to “give a for instance.” Awesome! I’ve also been encouraged to be “planful” as I pursue a career objective or two. (That’s actually a useful word, I think.) And finally, I’ve been introduced to the word keming, which should be obvious to the typophiles out there.
On a different note, this Sunday is the church’s annual chili cook-off. Last year I won the award for “hottest chili” with a variation on Chili Nation‘s “Seattle Coffee Chili.” This year I’m a judge. As Erica recently noted, I’m a sucker for roasted New Mexico (AKA “long green”) chiles. If you’re looking for an edge, you can ply me with a bunch of those.
Or, you know, you could slip me some cash.
