At some point in time, Matthew or Nathaniel (the truth is forgotten) conceived the idea of starting a blog. After some correspondence, it was eventually born into reality in September of 2008. It seems they wanted someplace to post thoughts, experiences, rambles, reviews, and whatnot. Nathaniel got to itching, developed a WordPress version of the blog, and got abm some hosting with NearlyFreeSpeech.NET, where it happily resides today.
