	More blogging

	A little further work on the ranty blog post.
	Not much exciting there.

	However, not having ready access to seeing the post in a
	full CSS-enabled browser means I'm previewing it in
	lynx(1). I don't find it a bad experience, and it helps
	push me to focus on the content and semantic markup rather
	than the presentation (which I can touch up later after
	the #OldComputerChallenge)

	And a little old-school gaming

	I had a little fun playing some of the bsdgames
	collection:

	- While I enjoy playing atc(6), it's a real-time game, so I
	can't pause it at life's many interruptions, and thus I
	don't play it as often. But I got in a few rounds today.

	- My mother taught me how to play cribbage(6) back when I
	was in early elementary school, and she just spent a week
	last month sharpening our daughter's cribbage skills. So
	having it on the console not only provides a quick bit of
	fun, but also brings fond memories of Mom.

	- Similarly, my late father taught me how to play Mille
	Bornes[3], so while I was feeling sentimental in my gaming, I
	also fired up mille(6) for a few rounds.
