Have an interesting week ahead of me. Have to take an election script designed to do one vote per candidate and extend it to accept voting for multiple candidates. Will have 20 or so people all running for a seat in the Homecoming Court. The top 5 get a seat. Then a second election will…
Back to basics… I love to read. Fantasy, non-fiction, history, ponderings… doesn’t matter. Have a ton of magazine subscriptions and always have 4-5 books on my “currently reading” list and a dozen on my gotta get to soon list. I like to write. Have never completed anything.
