I’ve watched a couple of movies while I’ve been down here. The latest is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon; you can find my take on it in the runner. I’ve also seen Cast Away, a movie that I thought was slightly overrated. It was good, but I don’t know. Afterwards, my sister and brother-in-law debated over whether 4 1/2 years was enough to make someone begin treating a volleyball as their best friend. I personally don’t think so. But then again, I’ve never been stranded on a desert island for 4 1/2 years.

Testing, 1, 2, 3…

Welcome to version 7.3 of pressing on! The big change here is the addition of greymatter to the site. This is software that allows, among other things, commenting on entries and searchable archives! There will be some wrinkles to iron out, of course, but hopefully everything will be running smoothly soon enough.

As a consequence of this change, I had to move all the entries that were on this front page to the updates section a little early. But they’re there. 🙂

Enjoy! And if you find something that doesn’t seem to be working properly or that doesn’t look right, please e-mail me.
