Last night I sat up thinking about everything that I could cover on this blog, and I ended up with a list that is three, maybe four pages long; but I skipped lines between each subject, so it really isn't that bad.

I'm tempted to publish the list, in the order that I thought of them, not the actual order that I will cover each subject. I guess it would be a good idea to solicit feedback of what I should cover first, or in addition to each subject.
