What to Write With (by Alan Jacobs)

Alan Jacobs’ blog is making me think and making me uncomfortable–both of which are good things in this context.

A recent post linked over to Neal Stephenson’s, “In the Beginning Was the Command Line” and I encourage you to consider reading it. It can be downloaded in its entirety for free–but be warned: it is LONG and it contains a few swear-words. Those things aside, it is definitely worth the uncomfortable read.

3:50AM here. Couldn’t sleep and finally decided to just get up and get some things done.

I’m thanking God for a small, well-built home that is keeping our minus-15 degree temperatures away from our family. (A recent DVD order to Hawaii mentioned how their wind chill is down to 85 degree! Hah!)

Hope you’re all tucked away and sleeping soundly–

Your friend,
Tara B.
