SP has just received an invitation to a beach house and it could not come at a better time to escape the heat of town. As I pack my bag to head out of town for the week, I thought a rerun of a popular post would benefit us all. Of all of the elements [...]

The redesign of the site is almost complete and today marks the re-opening of the SP Shop. If this were a real brick and mortar store front, I would invite you all in this evening for a scotch on the rocks and maybe some cheese straws. Of course, I would be there to help you [...]
