Harvey and Me


Harvey coming for a visit

So as it happens, the mighty city of Conglomeration is right in the middle of all the hurricane Harvey action -- on "the dirty side," as we like to say. Follow me on Twitter at @Pleonic for all the mayhem until our electricity goes out or our house flies away.

-----------------------------
UPDATE: All this post did in the event was to point you guys to my Twitter app, so I've decided to archive all my Tweets from Harvey right here for posterity.

Hi J A Carter,
Cannot find any other way to get you a message. I would like to thank you for your recorded readings. In particular the 20th Century New Testament. I was also pleasantly surprised to hear your voice in the book of Isaiah on LibriVox today. Nice work, you are a jewel.

Thank you M. Moses. You made my day! It's especially nice to get your comment on the Twentieth Century New Testament. I put a lot of work into that recording. :)
