Regardless of how you feel about the War in Iraq, I hope you'll consider donating something to Let's Bring Em Home. They buy airline tickets for US military personnel so they can be at home with their family for the holidays (who otherwise could not afford to).

For those of you who may not know, I tendered my resignation at AOL on Wednesday, and my last day will be December 1^st. They took it pretty well, although they are sad to see me go.

I'll be heading back to Mitretek and will be starting there on December 4^th.

Should be an exciting remainder to the year. At least I won't be paged at 2am anymore. :)

I decided that the page had been looking way too 1999 lately so I revamped things a bit, and converted the blog to Blosxom today. I also removed all hardcoded colors and switching to CSS stylesheets. Some older content that hadn't been updated in ages (screenshots, etc.) was removed. Let me know if anything seems to have broken.

On a related note, I registered thunderkeys.net and that will be my new primary domain. tynian.net will be retired at some point in the future. Email will continue to reach me at both domains, but update your email client to point to bma <at> thunderkeys.net when you get a chance. My new AIM name is also Thunderkeys.
