Mugsy's Lucid Links: Serious
©2002 Mugsy Lunsford, MacGeek of DogTown |
|
There are some differences between Silly and Serious but I reserve the right to blur the two. There is no particular order within each subsection. Deal with it.
Use the lefthand links for more rapid navigation. Void where prohibited. Any deviation from the intended plan may result in mental, physical, emotional, spiritual or financial setbacks. YMMV, YKMV where applicable.
There is another links page with more info specific to the presentation I gave at the Red Rock Revival here. |
