Tricks: Ian's Secure Shoelace Knot

Here begins the Tricks section - being where I share little tidbits I've discovered to make the daily grind a little smoother.

About

Welcome to the blog of Jeremy Ulstad. I’m not entirely certain what will be discussed here - the main criteria being that it interests me. I’ll try not to get too far out in the weeds. Then again, following tangents is one of my specialties… Feel free to contribute constructive comments (and criticisms!) on any post. Inappropriate comments will be ruthlessly expunged. Unless they’re funny. Fair warning. OK, so the page says “About” right? »
