Well, aside from the honeymoon planning (which I’ve already talked about), I’ve been busy with a lot of other things lately. My big non-wedding-related projects right now are the massive poetry reorganization (moving forward, ever-slowly), redoing the floor plan for my dream house (which, a few may have noticed, disappeared from the site in the v16 upgrade), and redoing my music demos (with all that fancy new equipment). All of these will be going up on the site one of these days, if I ever finish them.
Summers Storm and Harvard Hysterics
Two interesting Op-Eds (the first by Ruth Marcus from last Saturday and the second by George Will today) over on the Washington Post website. They are about Harvard University President Larry Summers’s comments on gender differences, which have raised such a stink in academia.
Honeymoon Planning
Well, Melissa and I went to the Fairfax AAA office on Saturday (before it got all too snowy) to meet with a travel agent and plan our honeymoon.
I’m happy to say that everything is booked, and—while still quite expensive—it’s a lot more affordable than I’d thought it would be.
Wis. Student Sues to End Summer Homework
I’m usually not a fan of frivolous lawsuits, but I have to sympathize with this student and his family (and agree with them in principle, if not in practice). The workload put on students in the public schools these days is unreasonable, and constantly getting worse.
Poetry Reorganization Status Update
Well, I have been working on tackling the poetry reorganization according to my plan. I have made a lot of progress.
I decided that, as is usually best practice in a major reorganization of anything, the first step was to organize and get a handle on what I had. So I brought up the old OSB website, my Website 12 poetry page, and my most recent poetry page. Armed with those three websites, I dove in and started accounting for everything in my poetry folder.
