I've decided to separate my blog content into two families:

Observations on the decline of our civilization

Everything else

This blog - the original one, to which people might have subscriptions or links - will be of the "Everything else" variety.

The "observations on the decline..." blog shall, henceforth, be hosted here.  I'll continue to post to both blogs in my sporadic and haphazard fashion, but wanted to keep the content separate for the sake of the readers.  People who want to read about the funny hijinks of my children, or my wacky work foibles probably don't want to read the gritty details of how our society is precariously teetering on the edge of collapse.  Perverse as it may seem, I like to write about all of these topics and more.  Perhaps writing about non-collapse related content is a coping mechanism to remind me there's still a lot of joy in the world, or maybe I'm just barking mad, or I guess both could be true.

They say a house divided cannot stand, so perhaps I should re-title this entry "voluntarily dividing my tool shed"; I don't think tool sheds suffer the same fate as houses...
