The Adventures of FriarJohn on Two (and Sometimes Four) Wheels

I am doing a bit of consolidating in my Twitter world.

• I won’t be posting any new content manually to the friarsride account.
• Friarsride will only be updated automagically from this blog and twitpic via my camera phone.
• Henceforth I will be only posting to my johnbedard twitter account.
• I’ve updated my sidebar here to show tweets from the johnbedard twitter account.
• I won’t be deactivating my friarsride account but it will remain on “autopilot,” inexorably linked to this blog.
• I won’t be un-following anybody on friarsride and I will approve or follow back anyone who follows that account.
• I’ve already re-followed everyone from friarsride on my johnbedard twitter account. If I missed you there, let me know.

Confused? No? Then can you explain it all to me?

I’ve gone about this course of action for a number of reasons, chiefly because it’s cumbersome keeping up two accounts. The split focus ended up being a hindrance to rather than a help. So we’ll try it this way for a while.

My furlough was ended after 4 weeks (a few days early) and I returned to Northrop Grumman yesterday, Monday, November 23rd. Ongoing employment is not guaranteed, of course, and never was. The prospects for keeping busy at my day job do not look good. Therefore I am still working on my resume and networking. It pays to be prepared. In the meantime I’m still looking for certain kinds of freelance work, locally based at this time.
