More lagging.
Dec. 4, A.D. 2010
I’ve only made a few minor updates lately, with the exception of removing the splash page while my wife and her sister figure out where they’re going with their hobby businesses. Otherwise, I’m lagging as usual. Feb. 12, A.D. 2010
Finally, I have uploaded my updated and expanded Reading & Writing section, with new pages of actual content. More will follow in the near future, including more older work, book reviews, and—I hope—an all new episodic story. This took me only 10 years to accomplish. Sept. 15, A.D. 2009
I posted two new progress reports and updated a third. I’ve also been working on a couple of the incomplete sections, but they’re still incomplete. Aug. 31, A.D. 2009
In addition to a few minor formatting updates, I have uploaded reports on a couple more of my works in progress. Aug. 2, A.D. 2009
For several months now, I have been quietly reformatting the site and even adding some new content. Most notably, I uploaded the long-delayed homepage and launched a web log. I’ve also added many new photographs. June 3, A.D. 2009
Sometime, differences in personal philosophies can prove so fundamental that to be reminded of them is simply crushing. That, in part, is why progress on this site has been so achingly slow. I promised a “big update” well over a year ago, but it is still less than half done. There are always “more important things” to do. May 28, A.D. 2008
I’ve made a few minor updates
to
welcome the new
year, but lately I’ve made very little progress on this site or on
anything else for that matter.
Jan. 5, A.D. 2008
So here’s the big announcement.
Progress on the
Dancing Giant Inn has been slow, because I’ve been designing websites
for my wife and her sister, who are both launching jewelry-making
ventures. These sites are still under construction, but for a variety
of reasons, they had to be unveiled
now. Finishing them will probably occupy me for some time to come.
Oct. 14, A.D. 2007
I wish that I had great
progress to report, but
only bits and pieces have gone up recently. However, there have been
some interesting behind-the-scenes discussions and planning. Maybe
something fruitful will come of it.
Sept. 4, A.D. 2007
More portraits are up in Photography
& Composition,
and I’ve added a tiny bit to the Commentary
section. Additional minor updates will be uploaded in the coming weeks.
I may not make any further announcements about this process until the
new homepage goes up.
Apr. 29, A.D. 2007
After one ridiculously late
night, I have
finished a preview of the new Photography
&
Composition section. Once I finish eliminating a confusing
series of relative linking, future updates should be a lot easier.
Apr. 23, A.D. 2007
The main Links
page
has been updated, and I have added some brief comments on the Virginia
Tech massacre to my sidebar on the Commentary
page. The big update continues to slowly progress in the background.
Apr. 17, A.D. 2007
I have started to lay the
groundwork for the new
organizational structure of the site, but I am still creating or
revising a lot of the actual content. I may have some previews ready
shortly, but I’ll keep the homepage the same until the big update is
ready.
Apr. 1, A.D. 2007
I have been diligently working
on the big
update, giving the site a more attractive appearance and creating some
of that long-awaited content, but I’ve also managed to slip in a few
smaller updates in the last several weeks. Have a look at the Hyperlink of Mystery.
Mar. 18, A.D. 2007
Today was cool and cloudy, so I
decided to add
an essay on global warming to the Commentary
section.
Feb. 26, A.D. 2007
The Dancing Giant Inn is back
in business! I
upgraded my computer last year, but I was without an HTML composer
until now. I know I have a lot of work to do on the site, so I’ll try
to
get some new content up. For now, I’ve made a couple updates to the
main Links section.
Feb.
24,
A.D. 2007
An insignificant update to the Commentary
section, but I do have another essay brewing.
May 1, A.D.
2006
More baby pictures have been
added to the Photography
section. Even more are on the way, as soon as I can make the time.
Jan. 23, A.D.
2006
After a brief delay because I
wasn’t feeling well, all sections
of the site are now up, though not necessarily complete. I have also
reformatted
several pages. Updates may slow down for a while, but I do have
additional
sections and new content in the works.
Nov. 15, A.D.
2005
After many iterations, the Links section
is back up. I’m rather pleased with the way it turned out, but I need
more
links in the Friends & Family area.
Nov. 12, A.D.
2005
With Adventures now up,
I’ve finally reposted all the photographs from the old site. Now, I’ll
have to work on some new stuff.
Nov. 8, A.D.
2005
I’ve made several minor
updates, reorganized the site slightly,
and added a couple old articles to the renamed Commentary
section. More photographs should be up within the next few days.
Nov. 3, A.D.
2005
I reposted a bunch of pictures
in the new Photography
section. There are many more to come.
Oct. 23, A.D.
2005
I dropped the Bush/Kerry
campaign advertisement from the homepage,
since they won the election last week.
Nov. 10, A.D.
2004
I added another article to the Politics
section. This one recounts an amusing e-mail exchange I had with a
newspaper
editor on the recently expired federal ban on “assault weapons.”

In A.D.
2004, I finally began to work on the
site again. It had essentially been down while I was busy with other
things.
The Dancing Giant Inn has now returned as part of the Dancing
Giant domain, which also includes the nearly defunct Dancing
Giant Swords.
The updates below were to the old site, before the redesign and consolidation with the www.DancingGiant.com site. Darkness has followed fire and flood. Naturally, I recorded this latest calamity for posterity. July 22, A.D.

I’ve sold two more swords and revamped some parts of the site very slightly. July 17, A.D.
2001
I’ve sold my “Norman” sword. May 30, A.D.
2001
I’ve reduced prices on several of my swords. May 3, A.D.
2001
Well, the sale of my Del Tin 14th-century long sword fell through, so it’s back on offer. Feb. 15, A.D.
2001
The for-sale page is now updated with shipping prices. Feb. 13, A.D.
2001
I’ve sold one sword and put another on offer. Feb. 6, A.D.
2001
The armory is now open, and I’ve added a new article to the library. Oct. 18, A.D.
2000
I’ve put several more swords up for sale, including a few out-of-production models from Del Tin. I’ve also ammended the links page slightly. July 21, A.D.
2000
Read my political platform. The section where it will be housed is still under construction, so this link will have to do for now. Anyway, it seemed appropriate given the fact this is an election year. Feb. 9, A.D.
2000
At last an update! The library is now open! Also made a few cosmetic changes here and there. Jan. 29, A.D.
2000
Due to ongoing renovations, I’ve put up a bulletin board over the door to the back office. This should let me keep any visitors informed about the goings on here at the Dancing Giant. Nov. 6, A.D.
