Is This It?

Appears to be. I feel like after ten-and-a-smidgin years there should be some kind of rave-up blowout farewell tour instead of this sort of staggering marathon runner crashing in a twitchy, sweating heap at the finish line ending.  But here it is.  Blogger's shutting off FTP, we're all kind of busy all over the place, and it's finally time to shut it down.

I'm not sure when the whole thing will go away; it's possible this will just linger here for a while until our ownership of the domain name expires.  I don't even know how to redirect yet, so I'll plug my solo blog one last time: Cryptonaut-in-Exile (cdogzilla.blogspot.com).  There, in addition to the occasional blog post, you'll also find widgets for my friendfeed, gReader, and twitter accounts. I'm cdogzilla wherever I am, so look me up. I'm social like that.

Thanks to everyone who's participated in one way or another along the way: my dear friends who've posted at one time or another here; commenters, when we had commenting;  to A1pha over at YOY who graciously let us squat on his server; all the blogs that provided inspiration -- Ghost in the Machine, to my mind, first and foremost; and, of course, to the missus for putting up with me slouching at the computer over the years broadcasting my geekery/atheism/politcal ranting to a largely indifferent cyberverse when I probably ought to have been doing more of the housework or something.

Just giving a farewell post to TC, which has been good and fun and odd, and has fallen under the wave of technical hassles and real-life intrusions. Off to do something constructive, like paint a child's room purple.

Sports Fella Leaves The Yard - Yard abandonment - Deadspin: Olbermann is no Maddow, and say what you will about Simmons's relevance, he is funny. Those things said, Simmons is clearly on the wrong side of history in this little tussle.

Connecticut Huskies Look to Make History Tonight at Women's Basketball Championship: "A few more wins and Connecticut is set to become the second team to run through two straight seasons as the No. 1 team in women's basketball. The Huskies are No. 1 in The Associated Press women's Top 25 for a 42nd straight time over a two-year span after receiving all 40 first-place votes from the AP's media panel."

The consecutive win streak record seems like the bigger deal here. Should be a great game tonight.

Daily Mail-o-matic Headline Generator Fear of the day poses as a question, since the idiocy behind this stuff can't survive as a statement. "Are Working Mothers Assaulting Housing Prices?" As Mrs. BoneDaddy says, "We need a U.S. equivalent for the New York Post."

I'm talkin' moonshine. Since moving from New England to the South I've been wondering where all the stills are at. I don't think I can fully assimilate until I've experienced the White Lightning. Finally, some bona fide homemade moonshine is coming my way. Can't wait to see what ol' Willie's band was fueling up with, what Uncle Jesse used to run through Hazzard County, and all those guys like George Jones sang about. I hope it comes in a jug with three Xs scrawled on it ...

Thanks Nature Valley for your consideration of my resealing lifestyle. If there's an alternative lifestyle I can't abide, it's the one where people think it's awesome to leave their packages open and spill shit all over the place. Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

Lost - Oceanic Flight 815, the original and the alternate time line, side by side. Loved the start of the new season. Although alternate universes have been hinted at - like with Desmond - this is the first full-fledged one we've been presented with. I'm not sure they should have introduced another mystery to the Lost story, but hope springs eternal - or at least seasonally - that they know where they're going.
