One of the coolest thing about being at FTB is getting to know many of my co-bloggers as people. Before moving here, I knew of pretty much everyone here, but through our extremely silly back-channel e-mail threads, I am getting to know what everyone’s like as a person (for example, behind his tough-as-nails exterior, JT is …

#SOPA/#PIPA blackout post no. 4
In solidarity with the sites (including FTB) that are down for the day, I will not be providing original content today. I encourage you to poke around the archives.
