Figured if I could find the time to upgrade WordPress again, I ought to be able to find time to actually post an article. Hasn’t worked out that way, though. Just seem to be too many things going on. Nevertheless, I did find time to take a vacation (a well deserved one, if I may say so). Some photos of Hawaii 2007 have been uploaded to my Flickr account. :cool2:

I just discovered there are other oil and gas related blogs besides mine. Frankly, I hadn’t thought about this previously. What happened was I noticed my blog software’s “dashboard” had something in the sidebar suggesting my blog had incoming links. Some sort of automatic google links checking thing, maybe. So, I clicked one and found Pipeline Perspectives. Sure enough, he/she was kind enough to actually include my link in his/her “blogroll”. I’ve now reciprocated. The other incoming link shown was the Chappell Family Blog. I already knew about that one, of course.

On top of discovering I have at least one reader, this is really putting the pressure on me to write some substantive oil and gas stuff. So, really, I’ll make a sincere effort to do so.

Suddenly it’s spring. The last I knew, it was Christmas and I was wondering how cold it was going to get this winter, whether I’d luck out with a relatively warm one without much snow shoveling necessary, or a cold and miserable one with snow-covered driveway threatening myocardial infarction. Apparently, it was relatively mild, as I don’t remember too much trouble with it. I recall shoveling the driveway a couple of times, but only once where it required heaving big piles of snow in the shovel. So, here we are, suddenly it’s spring. The grass turned green overnight between March 21 and 22. Literally. No kidding. All at once.

It turns out at least one person other than myself has read this blog during the past few months. Consequently, it seems I’ll have to hunker down and actually write something about oil and gas. Aside from the fact there’s little or no readership, I get so overloaded on the subject in my practice that when I have spare time it’s nice to think about something else. Unlike some lawyers, I guess I’m not totally immersed in the law to the extent that I eat, breathe and live for nothing else. Most people would say that’s a good thing, I think.

I’ll try to make my next post about something oily and/or gassy.
