So why call this blog "The Memorandum"? At first, I was going to call it "A Wander Abroad", since that is what I was about to embark upon. But when I showed my Mom the URL, she looked at and said "A Wonder Bra? What sort of name is that?"
So, since many of the people I created this blog for are co-workers and because I had to find a URL that wasn't already in use on Blogger, I ended up going with "The Memorandum". Both because it has sort of a business-type sound to it, and because the book sitting on my desk at the moment is titled "The Fuller Memorandum". So I'm a bit lazy too. =)
BTW, the Laundry novels by Charles Stross, which the Fuller Memorandum is part of and which begin with The Atrocity Archive are fantastic books. Think James Bond with a hacker attitude meets the Cthulu mythos. Great books!
