Before:

Kevin was born on the mossy hills of Scotland and lived for a while in West Lothian before the mores of pre-Thatcher and REALLY pre-Oasis Great Britain sent his family across the ocean to North America. They moved here and there and Kevin did the same when he was old enough. Now he lives in London with his family and a Dog.

Kevin Wardrop is an amateur writer, amateur photographer and professional pain in the ass. He has worked in the PC support business for most of his adult life and has been accustomed to simply answering technical questions as a matter of fiat, it was his career choice after all. Now he herds cats and puppies for a living as well as babysitting the web enterprises at the heart of western industry.

Excitement and Loss

So I didn’t get the job with the brewery. Not because of any personal failing (save accepting it weeks ago) but because it was no longer available. The good news is that I am heading out to Manitoulin Island next week in order to meet with their IT Manager and visit the site. The exciting part here is that Jen gets to come along and we’re spending two nights out there!

We’ll see how that goes. I took some pictures this weekend, some nudes, some family. The family pictures aren’t so good. I’m hoping to take better pictures this weekend of the confirmation of my newphew.

The new Blogger Paradigm

Published by NiteMayr on April 22, 2008

So, I’m moving away from my VOX Blog now… in favor of just using my own blog platform at my hosted site. This means that I have a bunch more control over what I do with my blog(s) and can crosspost as I see fit. I love VOX and if it was more open I’d stick to it, but with no API for outside connectivity it becomes just another spare blog to me.

Anyway, I like the idea of a nice central blog location at my “home”

When I get a new Linux box set up I’ll move all of my blog platform there and move completely into my own control. So we’ll see how the transition goes.

Portishead – Roads

A Quick test post to my blog with my new cross posting settings in place…

Q: Doesn’t this song bring you down?
A: Sure, but in that “only happy when it rains” kind of down. A celebration of down. Kinda emo I guess.
