For the reader or two who actually visits this site, you’ve noticed a lack of updating. Well, between the wife and me, we’ve been pretty sick lately, so the website, unfortunately, hasn’t been my first priority. I really don’t have any new articles or anything to post now, but I did want to throw something up here to let you know that I’m still alive and still care about the site, etc.
I’ll also admit that I have been doing a little work on another webpage on the Buhner.com domain. What’s funny about it is that it’s a decently large website; 36 HTML pages in it, last count. Yet, there always has to be one that complains about it. I do it for free, for the benefit of others, and yet some people take the stand of complaining that it wasn’t updated frequently enough. Granted, I didn’t update it for an extended period of time, but said complainer was pretty much the reason. My point? Gift horses, man. If someone is giving you something that normally costs money for free, do you complain that it’s the wrong color or isn’t perfect? Eh, maybe it’s just me.
Really extended news thing today, as I haven’t had time to say anything in over a week. The FAQ has been rewritten (in the About Us section), so that those who have questions have a little bit more to reference. It explains our submission policy, how the site got started, the whole “Buhner” thing, and a few more things. As you know, any questions that you might have will still get answered if you drop an email to tom@buhner.com.
Also contributing to the lack of updates has been the fact that I’ve had two interviews this week regarding a job in Southampton. The first interview went great, and I thin kthe second interview went well too, so hopefully… yeah. I should know something by Monday.
I also switched my insurance coverage. Yeah, not overly important, but you see the commercials for Geico all the time, and they swear they can save you money. For once, advertising didn’t lie. Geico lowered my premiums 36%, which saved me a ton of money. It’s worth a look just to go over to their website. You can get a quote online and see if you can save anything.
Last thing is that softball season has finally started again. Thanks to rainouts, forfeits, and me being sick, last night was my first start of the season. Oddly enough, I made the start at second (instead of my usual position of catcher) and made it work. I made some really good plays at second (including a diving catch) and felt really comfortable there. Plus, my knees really thanked me. I went 1-3 with a run scored, but it could have easily been 0-3. Have to work on the hitting.
