Hey, my site was hacked. Seven months ago! Here’s to noticing. I believe I’ve got everything under control. Fortunately for you, dear reader, it was one of those “Let’s use this server as an anonymous remailer” type scripts. Sigh. And I can’t find my theme on the WP repository anymore. Possibly for the best, as that was the vector… Well, welcome to a different looking MoE 😉
One of these days my name will be on this page… jus’ sayin’.
From ISFDB
The ISFDB is a community effort to catalog works of science fiction, fantasy, and horror. It links together various types of bibliographic data: author bibliographies, publication bibliographies, award listings, magazine content listings, anthology and collection content listings, and forthcoming books.
OK, so after some deliberation, I will do Movember again this year. Hallelu! To make things a bit more interesting, I’m going to use a reward system to get people to donate. I don’t have gifts for you, just the knowledge that I’m being more and more of a loony bin. Here are the tiers:
$20: I will actually shave off my gigantic beard and participate (erm… I’ve already received that $20, generally why the big beard is AWOL…)
$100: I will sport a pencil-thin moustache for the rest of the month (current plan is for a Tom Selleck)
$200: I will wear a sports coat to work for the rest of the month (I do have one that’ll survive chilly days, so don’t think this is a disincentive)
$300: I will wear dressy shirts under said sports coat
$500: I will brylcreem my hair (what hair!?!) for the rest of the month.
$1000: I will buy and wear a cravat for the rest of the month.
Donate HERE!!! <——— There, Donate there!
What we are looking at here, is an attempt to transform me from :

But frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn. But yes I do, so please donate already. Yeesh!
PS: WordPress says “give a damn” is cliché… well, yes. Yes it is.
If you are unaware, I am helping out with K1’s initiation program hockey this year. IP is TimBits hockey, without the TimBits, so a bunch of 5 & 6 year olds getting their first exposure to being on a hockey team. Daunting! I’ve had a police check, a “Speak out against child abuse” course, and coach training.
7am brings out some kids that are tired and don’t really want to be there. It’s mostly a moving list though, except for one little boy that would move from station to station on the ice, only to sit down against the boards and not participate. Two months this has gone on. This morning, he tried. After practice I was saying goodbye to him and his dad and he started gushing about how much fun he had today, and started showing off to his dad the drills that I had helped him with.
Pretty awesome.
What I said:
I nodded and left him in the villa. The sun made the warm sea sparkle as I walked back along the beach. I noticed that a crowd of the so-called tourists were sunbathing near the navigational beacon.
What I got:
I nodded and looked below. The sun to warm sea sparkle swap as I walked by Long Beach. I noticed that across some cultures Sunday in the navigation beacon.
I do have to wonder where that story in Long Beach is going, though… Will there be a chase scene on the Queen Mary?
Engine room of the Queen Mary, perfect place for a gun fight, no?
