Bush's Press Conference

the man makes some funny faces when he responds to questions.

but he wasn't saying anything.

i have two questions for you...

how do you ballance the public and private of your writing? you are getting close to being... done. does that impact what you write and publish here, knowing that when you hit the job market the hiring committee may read your blog? not that you rant all that much (i tend to do that, but censor the hell outa myself), but how... do you draw the lines in the cybersand?

initially, as i wrote my question, i was going to include the observation that you didn't seem to include much personal/private stuff. perhaps the question i was really wanting to ask was how did you come to keeping your posts... less personal? was it a decision from day one, was it more organic in nature?

on a different note, so... how hard was it to learn drupal? i am considering it for a new site, but have another five days until i am free from the burden of coursework for the semester and can devote time to learning the program. i also have a faculty who wants a blog-type content manager for his site but has a fairly complex design he wants me to create (me?) a template for. one where folks can enter a form-like entry with 6-7 body texts that will display linearly or will truncate the first 150-200 words of an entry into a kind of poster... i ramble. but yeah. i installed an older version on a new domain but haven't figured out how to... use it yet.

ps - please forgive the all lower-case typing. it's just one of those weeks.
