Bradley’s Almanac

[An Almanac Anniversary] It Was 20 Years Ago Today…

Posted on February 15, 2020 at 10:42 am | No Comments

Here’s to a couple decades of compulsively sharing what I love. It was on February 15th, 2000 that I decided to register this awkward, inside-reference URL and start up the Almanac.

For kicks, below is an embarrassing baby photo, along with the song I blame for the name.

If you’re here, you have my genuine appreciation for stopping by. While I mostly post on farcebook nowadays, I’m always optimistically intending to make the site itself more active, and do a little sprucing up as well. Maybe this is the year?
