Ramadan ends and al Fitr begins at sundown. It would certainly be ironic if today is the day that Tora Bora finally collapses. I'm not betting money either way. There are very shrewd players on both sides of this game and all are skillful and determined.

I've posted some music store photos. Consider these the before shots which I took as a reference point. Look back on them in a few months when I get some after shots to comprehend the scope of the operation that I've set in motion. That is of course if I manage to update the pages. I notice I've still got my kitchen photos featured as under construction and it's been finished since summer. Sigh... One of the things I've discovered about myself in the last several months is that I don't enjoy being a slave to a machine; and that includes websites. I allowed this to happen because that's the nature of the site I created. For the last year or more it has been a living document through which one can obtain a glimpse of the world behind my glazed and dark-ringed eyes. Now several of the original pages are getting stale, and several new features never quite materialized - and I'm off living another life entirely and not doing a lot to correct the situation. In my defense I'd like to state that it's still a living document and still getting some updates - unlike the many sites you see on the net that haven't had a finger laid on them since 1995.
