I liked Rick Astley’s “Never Gonna Give You Up” from the first time I heard it. No matter how many times I hear it on oldies radio (ha!) or in a rickroll I still really like it. I hope people who only know it as the punchline to an easy online prank realize what a banger that song still is 37 years after its initial release.
Hello (Again) World!
I’ve owned schafer.com since 1996 - over 28 years. Since 2000 it’s been my personal blog.
Moving toward 2025 seemed like a good time for a fresh start, so I pulled down an archival copy of the WordPress version of the site covering all 24 years of blogging and replaced it with this micro.blog site.
I’m hoping the new, radically simpler platform will inspire me to post more. I guess we’ll see!
