I set up this new site in January and did the big import back then and promptly failed to finish. It’s still a work in progress but I plan on posting new content here now and migrating the January-through-August content over when I get some time. My friend Baba’s done a great favor to me over the years by hosting this blog; but since I got tired of Movable Type and have had my own hosting for quite a while, it seemed like time to get my act in gear – especially since I finally got the crackpot sports blog up and running a few weeks ago over here already.
The current masthead as of 9/1 is a real picture of the downtown station my stepson took for me while we did a quick detour on the way to Austin High so I could count riders one morning last Spring. It was glorious. Click below for the full image.

Grats on the new platform. I’ve updated my link to you.
(Are you keeping that banner? Is it meant to be ironic? It’s a pretty landscape but you’re an urbanist after all.)
Heh. I knew it was a default but hadn’t considered the implication. I made an AWESOME banner for my sports blog – one of these days I’ll unleash that artistic talent on a new banner here but I wouldn’t expect it super-soon.
rofl on new masthead
I remembered I had taken this picture on one trip downtown to count riders last spring with my stepson – we saw the poop and I stopped and made him take a picture real quick out the window. Just glorious timing.
(in other words, yes, that’s really from the downtown station – I should post the entire pic – what the heck, I shall).
