Apologies and Projects Update

Hello there, children.  I know that I’ve been quite derelict in my blogging duties for some time now., and I have some solid excuses for you, four of which are true.  That’s right, one’s a lie.

In Which Dan Friesen Is The Number One Columnist at the Number One Journalism School in the Country That Just So Happens To Have the Number One Football Team in the Country

I can’t believe our football team just beat Kansas. It’s even harder to believe the Tigers are the No. 1 team in the country.
