So I am busying myself with Music and Computing

So it is fairly official: I am playing bone as much as is humanly possible, while also training and improving my computing skills (these devices seem to be with us for the long run...).

Stay Tuned for Web Dev Stuff

I'm doing the build of Westernstudioservice.com into a "customer oriented" web site. That means I'm taking the same marketing oriented basic website and changing it into a modern CSS based site with a logon for designated customers (several at first. . .possibly more later) who will be able to access a secure area to see PDF versions of their current inventory as printed by Michael Brittain.

Going easy on the POTUS. . . what? Like there are no liberal commentators to go "hard" on the guy? Or maybe there is no one in the liberal hard-ball press corps with a three digit IQ? [more likely] So this guy ran a male escort service years ago. . . We Republicans and Christians are so OVERFORGIVING. This is because we are the party of compassion. I forgot! That's SUPPOSED TO BE the Dems area of expertise. Well, right now they are excoriating an innocent man, because he was representing a conservative position, as a reporter at the White House and is, or was gay. Read ...
