Woke at 9:30 am to finish packing and drive to Steph’s parents’ house where we were leaving our cars. My parents picked us up at my in-laws at around 2:30 pm so we could get to Newark Airport [which is about an hour away] two hours before our 5:25 pm flight. The trip [...]
Just a brief post to say we’re back from the honeymoon. I’ll write up some detailed posts about all of our stops after things get settled.
As of yesterday, I am a married man. We had a lovely Roman Catholic ceremony, and surprisingly the church did not burst into flames when I received communion. Thankfully the church was air conditioned because it was exceedingly hot. After the ceremony, we spent about a half an hour at a park [...]

print ”.join([x for x in reversed(raw_input("String here: "))])
Josh came up with this one-liner:
print “stringtoreverse”[::-1]
The main problem with my script is that it uses “reversed()”, [...]
I found this picture of me with what might be our first [an AST IBM 286 clone] or second [Gateway 2000 486] computer. The background and my age lead me to believe it is the latter. But I could be wrong. Note the dot matrix printer.
