    In the midst of another business trip, this time rather heavily occupied with work (compared the typical slow schedule), so minimal time for updates and news. In concept, this trip will lead to extended our current account contract, which in terms translates into job security for the next many years, but still a bit early…

    Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate. Spending time with family and friends today, so not giving much thought to gaming and hobbies, at least until the turkey is complete.

    Here in Ohio, the cold weather has arrived with a vengeance. We have had a few days already where it was cold, but today seems particularly frigid, though most likely its just me not adapting quickly. Nice day to sit inside and watch the world through a window.

    Not much work today with the website or content, as we are enjoying Beggar’s Night with the kids. Not only is this a good season for candy, but I have always found this to be the best time to find or collect gaming props – there are an abundance of supplies at costume shops. And…

Although statistics and metrics can always be misleading, I of course study them to try to see the future by learning from the past. Relative to the website at least, I…

    Haven’t posted the last few days, primarily due to the previously mentioned office remodel. Over the weekend, we ventured forth to our local Ikea, and purchased numerous pieces for the office. Since early Friday, my computer systems have been dismantled, and they are only now getting back to operational status. Fortunately, most of the design…

    Making the move to remodel my workspace quite a bit, and hopefully gain a much cleaner area. Of course, step one is a massive purge of all the various collections I have gathered over the years. Going thru all the pieces, I have been discovering that there has been a lot of waste – projects…

    Ongoing evolution of my efforts. I spent some more time at our gaming location last night, attempting to recreate and then resolve the audio hum I was getting during the last session. At the time, it was very concerning – I had to reduce the gain in all cases to almost silent to eliminate it.…
