Did Don Imus deserve to get fired? We all stay stupid things from time to time, and Imus has made more than his fair share. I won’t excuse him for the comments he made… but did it really deserve this much attention? He apologized for his remarks. End of story, right? Would Jesse Jackson or … Read the rest of this item

I added an Archives page to the site last night. You can now easily view posts on cdharrison.com by Month or by Category/Subject. A few of the earlier posts you’ll find in the archives appeared as part of a column I had in the Augusta State University student newspaper, The Bell Ringer.

I’m in the process of moving my site and a few others under my control to their new home, over at MediaTemple. I’m not sure how long it will take for the DNS changes to propagate. Your patience is appreciated.
Nope, you’re not seeing things: Today is April 5th and that means it’s NAKED DAY! The stylesheet has been disabled on this site in support of the 2nd Annual CSS Naked Day.
