Welcome

For those that have known me for over 5 years may recall an online newsletter I used to publish called the "Chronicles of the Bored". As it turns out, what I really was doing was sharing a mashup of news articles I found interesting (long before the Web 2.0 was invented). So now that the technology has caught up, I've decided to revive the CotB using Blogger and Google Reader. Enjoy!
