England, Professor. ENGLAND!

Several years ago, my wife Michelle and I spent three weeks touring England, barely scratching the surface of this magnificent nation and finally infecting me with the travel bug that's since had me visit Europe another time or two, plus several traverses across my own home country of the United States.

I recently posted some photos of that trip at Uncharted, focusing first on Stratford-on-Avon, birthplace of William Shakespeare, and then on Holy Island, one of the cradles of Christendom in England.

Visit and enjoy. More importantly, go see these places for yourselves. Click on the pictures to go straight to the photosets.

The Best Part

Kerplunk! by Patrick F. McManus

Admittedly, I myself was getting a little tired of the advances in technology. It used to be that all the different kinds of wackos sat out in their little isolated cabins or apartments somewhere. Each went through an entire lifetime without seeing another wacko of his particular ilk. Now a wacko can get on the Internet and find the other nine wackos in the world who are just like him.

McManus goes on to say they get to gether to decide what to blow up, but given the Unabomer lived in an isolated cabin as a Luddite and still managed to blow things up, there's a little flaw in McManus' logic. Nevertheless, I see where he's going with this.
