Personal update.  I am in the “no crutches” phase of my ankle injury recovery.  Another week with the walking boot, and then I can transition into wearing shoes again.  I’ll have to do personal physical therapy, and I can’t drive until early April.  But it’s progress. So let’s celebrate by going through the blogroll and…

However, I’ll still be a part of Trivia Bowl – instead of answering the questions, I can tell…
