Cold storage

I haven’t posted recently. My usual random postings and the tech support series kinda came to a grinding halt. Up until now, I’ve not said why. So, here’s why.

I have a new job. I’d bore you with all the details of who, what, when, where, and why, but I’m posting from my iPod touch, and I don’t feel like boring you.

Anyway, you’re probably wondering why a new job would affect my ability to post. Well, that job is with Apple. Given that, there will be a lot more that I can’t talk about as opposed to what I can talk about. And quite frankly, I’m not going to jeapordize my job by blogging about it.

Therefore, until such time as I deem otherwise, MYM is going silent. I’ll still post about general life stuff and other geeky stuff over at my personal blog at mygeeklife.com, so check that out if you like.

As I write this, I realize how hard this is. MYM has existed since 2003, when I had the idea in the shower one morning. It’s been the record and sometimes the catalyst for my modding pursuits, and a decent chunk of my experience with wordpress. It’s been a constant, an adventure, and one of the ways I defined my little piece of the mac universe. But, one must pay heed to reality.

My deepest thanks to everyone who’s read, posted, commented, linked, loved, hated, flamed, apprecieated, and noticed my stuff.

Thanks to Tom Bridge, a true friend I’d have never made if not for mym.

My thanks to Macslash, who never hesitated to link to me and publish my stuff.

My thanks to Washington Apple Pi, who always put up with us at the yard sales.

My thanks to Macworld Magazine and Cyrus Farivar, who published the NecroMac.

Evan Keeling for 17 years of friendship, and all your invaluable help with the Necros, and Pimp My Mac. You, sir, rule.

Anthony, the Jacobs, and Mr. Whitlock of MacMod.com. Macmod, painted iBooks, and vampire dolphins. It’s all been more fun than I ever imagined. I never thought I’d do my own podcast series. Serious awesome.

Barb & Dave. You never really complained all that much about the garage, cause you loved what I was doing. It meant the world to me.

LeAnne. Yellow and white. Only for you.

Mikey-San. For naming it the pimpty-400.

And on that note, I encourage you all to check out the wordpress app for iPhone/iPod Touch. It really is awesome.

Thanks again,
