Geeky Nostalgia

The over-arching tone of my blog is indeed a Spiritual one, and that is not changing, however, a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away, I was once well and truly ensconced in geekdom, that mysterious culture, where building computers and tinkering with cutting edge software is the norm and you look with disdain upon the masses who simply “use” computers, however, something happened, REAL LIFE arrived, my time was absorbed more and more by my business, spiritual pursuits/church etc and then one day it happened, I unscrewed my hard drive which was in my custom built box, and robbed it for business use in my Mac, along with it’s monitor.
