The Yankee Sailor Converted To Inactive Status
As of 1138Z today, I completed some maintenance on the site to put it in lay up. Commenting has been almost completely disabled, and I’ve turned up the settings on my anti-spam plugin to the “ravenous raptor” level.
I almost struck the site from the active list and disposed of it for scrap over the weekend. To keep it short, it’s become a distraction from bigger projects and I’m almost convinced it’s worn out its usefulness. I’ll let time be the judge, though.
I’ll update the site in October with my current thinking, but until then, this ship will sit idly at her moorings.


Get the Yankee Sage delivered!
