Hello World!
Hello all! Since Posterous is being consumed by Twitter, and the future of my blog with them is a little foggy, I have decided to jump into the tumblrverse. I was also a little inspired by XKCD’s comic Monday: http://xkcd.com/1043/ Well, I hope you like what is to come and I look forward to connecting with all my followers. Cheers! -Andrew
