2022 Week 27 – Odd One Out
There were several large protests in downtown Indianapolis last weekend and even more this past week. All were regarding the Roe vs. Wade reversal, and all were peaceful, which s a lot better than the mess we had downtown a while back.

Keeping the Web in Your Pocket
As much as I read online you would think I’d already be using an online clipboard but the usefulness was lost on me until about three weeks ago.
