Archived Columns

I'm really big on archiving my published work. I derive comfort from reading my older musings. It also helps me benchmark myself by tracking how I've changed in the days, months, and years since a particular piece first hit print. Mostly, I seem to be getting more ornery, but that's fodder for another post, if not a whole other blog.
 
On the assumption that web links remain valid for a while - as if! - I'm going to experiment with this blog by posting some of my more recent columns. I know the most recent six or seven pieces are available here, but then the links roll off the back of the page to make room for the new stuff. So in case you missed 'em the first time around, here they are again:
