… I have all sorts of unfinished things that I’d like to complete today: e-mail in various stages of composition, experimental plugins half-tweaked, shelves partially dusted, ‘To Do’ lists with not many items checked off, megabytes of unprocessed photos — the usual.
But I got a real boost today: the new owner of our Piper Tri-Pacer contacted me. The kind of letter that did, on its very own, make great strides in strengthening my faith in the conscientiousness of people. I’ve had other examples of that this week, but this e-mail made such a difference that I wanted to mention it here.
Writing is a powerful thing.
The plane is good hands.
I have a standing invitation to fly in Zero-Two-Papa again, and this offer is worth more to me than a winning lottery ticket.
In other, far more mundane news, I have been tweaking again. (Gemini, remember?) New stuff you may or may not have noticed:
- Links page – revamped, with new categories, new order, and credits for this website
- Photography page – revamped, with page template tweaks, friendly URLs, etc. (am toying with a different Flickr/Wordpress plugin, but am sticking with this for now)
- Brian’s Latest Comments – on the sidebar; the shade indicates the relative newness of the latest comments for that post; I’ve set it to show the last three commenters; it’s easy to see if there have been comments after yours
- About – expanded David’s section
- Videoclips – reorganised into sections and all with preview images
Over the years I’ve learned that websites are like homes: never truly finished.
