I have a lot of personal projects I want to work on. I keep a list (and bare in mind that some of these ideas might be gargantuan projects, some might be small “do in a weekend” type projects) and right now I have about 35 things I wish I could work on. Sometimes it […]

In The Red Deeps dot com is the oldest site I currently have online. I went back to it the other day to see if I could come up with some ideas to make it a little better. I found that I liked the overall look and feel of the site, but didn’t like the […]
