This is not an improvement! This is a downward spiralling! Posting an excerpt from Cheers that has been doing the rounds on forwards since Margaret Thatcher was in power to try and show that you're mending your ways and then immediately regressing isn't progress. Also, don't you think the fact that you're writing about software that will help your visitors to avoid the boring parts of your blog, which is, itself, a boring blog entry is the funniest thing you've done this week? If you're having to provide filters so people can avoid parts of your content, your content isn't as compelling as it might be. Fact! I suggest you make a serious attempt to better yourself this time. No more forwards, no more technobabble. I constitute 50% of your regular readership man, you will respect the customer! Edwin!

No more technical stories. Post me details of cool guitar riffs you've learnt or how you got drunk and decided to make a cat food chilli or something. :) My domain does point to my blog.
