Last entry

This is it--the last entry on this blog.

I no longer have the time necessary to devote to this blog or even to this online persona. Rob will now fade away. I will likely be back in some form in the future but ConNiPtioNs is going away.

In August 2002 I started blogging. I never intended to make it a long term project but I soon found that there was something cathartic about posting--even when there was almost nobody reading what I wrote. I did not know what to expect or what direction this blog would take. I soon found that this was a pretty safe place to vent my frustrations with the US government and the idiots who voted them into office.

Here it is over three years later and until a couple of months ago I was posting pretty regularly. Now I think that the time is right to close this door and move on.

Thanks to everyone who has commented here over the years. I've enjoyed "knowing" most of you--even those of you who disagreed with me. I have learned something from each of you. Au revoir.
