About

Hello, dear reader. My name is Brian Enigma and I live in Portland, Oregon. I enjoy interesting technology, a good drink, and a good story. Sometimes I pretend I am a writer and compose text on such subjects here. Sometimes I fall back to posting pictures of my naked cat. For more stalkeriffic information about me, please see the “About” page.

In this section, I present this blog’s tag cloud, with which you surmise the blog, like most others on the internet, is largely about the author’s cats.
