First post at the new place…yay!

For those of you just tuning in, my previous blog entries can be found at the old Ministry of Torque and Recoil, hosted on my web space at Frontiernet.

Why the name change?

If you’ve been following my exploits lately, you’ll know that my priorities have shifted a wee bit since the birth of Quinn. I even sold the torque part of the ministry, my beloved Ninja 250, because I found myself unwilling to continue risking my hide. (I keep telling folks that I know I’m a skilled rider, but I also know that 80%+ of all cagers on the road are stupid, unskilled, or both.) After getting almost cleaned off the bike twice by inattentive locals in two-ton Battlestar Medicare behemoths, I decided that it was time to sell the bike.

I’m still very much into the whole recoil thing, but the torque addiction will have to lay dormant until much later, when I am one of those beergut-adorned midlife crisis types who go out and buy Harleys in their forties.

To reflect the change in my priorities, I have titled the new blog “the munchkin wrangler”, which is what I give out as my profession whenever somebody asks.
