I am a Messenger of the People
I wanted to keep some fresh content rolling on the webpage while we work out the future of three-bit so as a gag last week I threw out some titles for subject matter. Two of them I put in there as whimsical reflections of what the three-bit editors do with their spare time and had nothing to do with our quest to provide great content with some meaning. These subjects, of course, became the only two people expressed interest in, so here I am finding myself having to write about two subjects I’m not sure I have the balls to make happen.
Well here it goes.
