What's in a Name?

As a technology writer for more than 30 years now, blogging seems like a busman's holiday more than a trendy promotional activity. Still, many events over the last few weeks have pushed my buttons; "Gee, I should write that up somewhere", I've thought on several occasions.

The only stumbling block has been coming up with an incredibly witty, punny, title for a blog. In the end, falling back on the breadth of my early education, I decided simply to name the thing in Latin. Now there's class.

You figure it out.

Speaking as a geek much of whose misspent youth involved typing in BASIC programs from "Your Computer"... thanks!

You are going to post some of your cartoons, right?

'struth, Psuedonym, you have a long memory!

The cartoons, unfortunately, are probably still copyright of the original artist, Brendan Ackhurst (otherwise known as B.J. Ankleblurter). I might be able to put something up, though. But would you believe, I only have one copy of "Your Computer", and I had to buy that off eBay?
