Welcome Facebook Folks and All the Rest of Y'all: I'm Just Getting Started

I have returned from the West with many anecdotes and whatnot; you read 'em, I'll write 'em. It can be a bit loooooonely once one turns off the hustle and jive of Facebook because even though the NSA and the Googles are right here with us they are vewy, vewy quiet, which reminds me, HELLO, GOOGLES! The Blogger platform Our Year at The Fahm perches upon is one of the Googles so everything here is on the record. Literally.
