Edna: It will be bold! Dramatic!
Bob: Yeah!
Edna: Heroic!
Bob: Yeah. Something classic, like, like Dynaguy. Oh, he had a great look! Oh, the cape and the boots…
Edna: [throws a wadded ball of paper at Bob's head] No capes!
Bob: Isn’t that my decision?
Edna: Do you remember Thunderhead? Tall, storm powers? Nice man, good with kids.
Bob: Listen, E…
Edna: November 15th of ‘58! All was well, another day saved, when… his cape snagged on a missile fin!
Bob: Thunderhead was not the brightest bulb…
Edna: Stratogale! April 23rd, ‘57! Cape caught in a jet turbine!
Bob: E, you can’t generalize about these things…
Edna: Metaman, express elevator! Dynaguy, snagged on takeoff! Splashdown, sucked into a vortex!
[shouts]
Edna: No capes!

I’ve finished importing my old journal entries into the new CMS – you’ll notice I greatly trimmed-down from the total still visible at the old location: http://warrenmyers.com/archive.php.

My website has been due for an overhaul for quite a while.

I’m going to be shifting some all of my content from a manually-managed setup to a CMS. This is the first stage of that migration: I’m importing old blog/journal posts that I feel should be carried-over to the new look-and-feel. Please bear with me as these changes happen over the next several days.
