Back!

There were some technical difficulties, but I wrestled with the Australian internet overlords and got everything worked out. I would say things are back to normal, but you and I both know that things are hardly normal these days.

Phrases encountered when filing my taxes:

"Did you die in 2005?"

"If you are in the trade or business of catching fish, box 7 may show cash you received for the sale of fish."

Also
The Dallas Morning News won a staff pulitzer today for their photo coverage of Katrina. Always nice when the home team gets a win. This makes two years running that TDMN photogs have taken home pulitzer honors.

Ventana Readers:

If you can't tell, it's not monthly anymore. Rather, I've chosen to go with the "whenever I feel like it/have enough photos for a decent post" updating schedule. Relaunch/redesign coming soon.
