Okay, so I’m still trying to figure out how to regain the content of my old blog, get it reposted… just get shawnbakken.com running again. Since that doesn’t seem to be an option, this’ll have to do for now. I may have lost a whooooole bunch of people who used to check it out—it’s only been, what, five weeks since the site disappeared? And because I didn’t know the nature of the beast, I couldn’t warn them ahead of time where they should look in the future. Sucks to be me, huh?
But I’m rambling (which is pretty much what you can expect from me a lot of the time). Suffice it to say that until shawnbakken.com is online again, this is the best I can do to keep the legacy alive! … Or at least keep something on the web for public consumption, because Yahoo 360 and Myspace have a limited accessibility. (Actually, that was kinda nice for preventing my family from snooping on me. It’s kind of annoying to write “This is what happened” or use potty-mouth words like “shit” and “fuck”—not that I ever use those words—and then get grilled about it a couple hours later.)
So this is it, folks. This is what we’re all stuck with when you watch the show replaying on MTV and need to ask me why I didn’t know a second disease you can get from ticks. Thus, until further notice: Welcome to my home.
