Dear 31fps,
Please forgive me for neglecting you all of January. I’ve become hooked to Tumblr and have been updating my new mini-blog SamPurtill.com. I’ll try to write a big post or two for February, but no guarantees.
Sincerely,
Sam

Russians rescued after missing for 3 months →
Thinking of buying a BlackBerry Curve, but spending $400 for a unlocked BB that will be outdated in 12 months doesn’t sound like a smart thing to do. Wait, what am I talking about?
