I’ve Moved!

November 20, 2008

So I’m sure that most people have noticed that the site has been offline for a few days. There’s a reason for that, which I will get to shortly. But first, let me just say this:

I AM NO LONGER BLOGGING HERE

In fact, I am blogging at a new site I have just finished setting up: kennethhynek.net. A full explanation for the reasons behind the move can be found here.

That said, this is not the end of . My wife has expressed interest in taking over blogging at this domain, and I am working to make sure that she gets set up here as soon as possible.

Also, my profound apologies for the modification to the site face; the move was not as seamless as I would have hoped, and many of the image files for this theme, and in the gallery, were corrupted during the course of their evacuation from my previous web host’s servers. Until such time as I have repaired them, I’ve put a clean-looking template in place of the previous one.

Update: for the purposes of further traffic shaping, new posts from kennethhynek.net will be excerpted below. Full articles can be read at the new blog.

Asshat gets what he deserves

That would be a kick in the pants:

A nine-year-old girl escaped an abduction Friday afternoon by kicking her would-be kidnapper in the groin, Edmonton police said today.

That’s style. I’m sure this little girl was frightened as all heck, but kudos to her for keeping her head and landing one good kick on the guy’s…er…guys. Hopefully this creep will think twice before attempting another snatch and grab. In a slightly more ideal scenario, she’ll have hit him hard enough that he’ll eventually run to a hospital concerned about bloody urine.
