Welcome to my little (for now) page o' writings. There are now a plethora of writings here for your entertainment. A couple are even by moi! (ugh! i do not speak french. i can barely butcher spanish decently...) Sparky's Brain is a separate section, not really part of Writings; it's a bunch of rants by me on topics that interest me. Don't worry, it links easily back here. Any new pieces are denoted by a red asterisk. Read on...
