   Who needs a toy lisp? Can't we just lisp for real? Edit: Ok, ok. Now that the title of submission has been changed from "Toy Lisp Interpreter" to "Little Lisp Interpreter" my quip, having lost context doesn't

   Here is a little love for Octopress. Easy to mess around with the themes and easy to deploy with github or rsync.

   Mine is too. I'm actually on my second one. I started back in the late 1980's and spent some fifteen years planning and plotting the first one before I put that outline in a drawer and began planning and plotting the second one. I'm hope

   I'm left-handed and spent my learning-to-write time in school attempting to form the letters while holding the pencil differently than everyone else. I could already write and to pass the time I decided to find out whether it was possible

    I'm taking Modern and Contemporary American Poetry (ModPoPenn) and I'm thoroughly impressed by the fact that the professor, Al Filreis and his staff of TAs maintain a strong presence in the forums. The discussion format videos are excellen

    Sexual tension? In friendships? Wait a minute, why not? Let's don't be disingenuous, here. We love it, don't we? Isn't why we read books, go to movies, watch silly TV series? It works there because it's universal. We've all felt it. I

    I don't know how it ends and I can't read the end. Every time I try, I have this strange feeling that as long as I don't read it, it can't happen; what ever it is; that the story, and the fate of all those strange and magical personalities

    I'm in the process of moving my Typo4 blog to Octopress in the hopes of blogging more when there are fewer textareas to fill in. Octopress is built on a fork of Jekyll and comes with a very nice html5 / sass default template and some other

    Hi starwed, I'd love an invite to google+ if you'd be willing. I'm not an FB user, but the google folks have me all curious. My email is in my profile, and thanks a million!

    I use http://goodreads.com . It's been around a long time and I like the community features for keeping up on what my friends are reading. I also use it to keep an eye on forum discussions about movies sinc I figured out it's a great place
