Blog Post Pipeline

     In an effort to maintain consistency of posting, our dude decided to create for himself a pipeline for blog posts.  In this way the method allows for the ebbs and flows of inspiration and motivation.

     The pipeline will consist of draft, transcribe, edit, publish.

     The draft is his handwritten expression of inspiration.  Transcribe is the transfer from analog to digital.  Edit is the transfer from digital to code for the world wide web.  Publish is to have the post posted to the blog.

     Thus for consistent weekly publishing, each week the author will draft a blog post, transcribe the blog post drafted from the week before, edit the transcribed post from the week before that was drafted two weeks before, and automatically publish the post that was edited the week before that was transcribed two weeks before that was drafted three weeks before.

     This way, if the author is uninspired for a couple weeks, there are still other posts in the works and the opportunity to catch up to his self imposed quota will be more attainable.

Never-Over

     The Spirit of Christmas is ongoing, unceasing, and ever constant.

     Though the moment of midnight that one night a year is only a passing instance, the spirit is ever present.

     Joy to the world, for those who, solely by their presence, keep the Christmas spirit each moment in each day of every year.

Santa, the Outlaw

     Did you know Santa is an outlaw?

     He sneaks in through the chimney to avoid detection by the authorities of the culture.  Otherwise, Santa would bring his gifts in the light of day.

     The authorities of the culture do not like Christmas cheer — the joy challenges their authority to keep people miserable.

     Santa is a welcomed guest to the homes who desire the gift of his presence.  Those who believe in him cannot be held down in misery by the authorities of the culture.

     May your Christmases be White
