Back to the Continent

Dear readers. I am not going to try to convince you that this blog is anything but dormant. But like Vesuvius, there will be occasional rumbling and as said volcano did in 79 AD, things here at Battle at Bull Mound may also get rough. Of course, I’ve got no intention of burying cities; it’s not really my cup of tea. France, on the other hand, now THAT is a cup of tea I’ll drink dry (no pun intended, if there is one). In fact, I’m just that Francophile that I decided it was a good idea to break from my studies and go work as a mechanical engineering intern in Annecy in France for a year.

I’m not inclined to promise that I’ll write much, as I’ve broken that promise before. On the other hand, I can say that if I had promised that, I would like to believe I would have no problem keeping the promise this time. I am imagining there will be some of you who finds it necessary to point out that “Arthur, why bother? There is no one who reads your blog anymore!” To those I would point out that, as far as writing or talking without anyone listening concerns, it has never stopped me before.
