Ethnography, The Gatekeepers, & Creek Hill

Another day gone by. Another late night. It’s definitely time for me to go to bed. I worked on my ethnography project for a couple of hours tonight, and I was completely ticked off by something I had forgotten to do. I had saved my work on the Peavy family … Continue reading →

Another Useless Post On A Useless Site

And Bla Bla Bla. My mind has been completely drained. Maybe I just need a week of good, solid rest. I’ve almost made the site completely XHTML. That’s right. And I’ve cleaned out some of the PHP involved with integrating the Wordpress into my site. I think the code runs … Continue reading →

The Tater Creek Driveway

I was going to wait until later to post, since I usually post right before I go to bed. It kind of gives me closure for the day. I can say all the things I need to say, and get it all off of my mind. But, I wanted to … Continue reading →

There Goes Lucy In The Sky With Her Diamonds
