Your Man For Fun In Rapidan: An Index

Ralph Meers, my old and devoted friend and the only man foolish enough to take on the task of archiving my torrent of babble to date, has recently completed an index of Your Man For Fun In Rapidan, from its launch in December 2009 until the present. I haven't fully investigated Meers' labor of love, but I trust that is as strange and arbitrary as the man himself. My only request was that there be no more than one index entry for each post, and Meers has assured me that this request has been honored.

Perhaps the index will be useful to someone attempting to navigate this hideous and unwieldy site. Perhaps not. Regardless, here it is, and I thank Meers for performing such an absurd and thankless task.

I am presently working on several writing projects that are, at the very least, of some interest to me. Bits and pieces of them will almost surely find their way here.

Thanks for reading my words. I really am grateful.
