If you do something stupid or annoying (frequently the same thing) either to me or in my presence, you&#8217;re going in the blog.     In a way, I was also using the blog as a bit of therapy &#8211; working through some issues and getting things off my chest.  And thereby calming down a bit.  <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>And though I stand by everything I&#8217;ve said in this blog over the years &#8211; maybe ranting and writing therapy isn&#8217;t really doing me any good.  There&#8217;s been a lot of humor here as well, but the perhaps a fresh start is the way to go.    A new blog, maybe more focused on the projects I do and the positive things in going on, is the better way to go.    I may even try to use this for my website and will eventually move the content over from there.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I recently saw a post on another blog that talked about some WWII posters that said, &#8220;Keep Calm and Carry On&#8221; and compared it to some newer sayings of &#8220;Breathe Deep and Let Go of Things&#8221; and &#8220;Get Excited and Make Things&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I like all of those sayings &#8211; I&#8217;ve even printed them out and stuck them up in my cubicle &#8211; and I think that&#8217;s the collective philosophy of where I want to go.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>So.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Approximately Equal To is closing up shop.
