-That's it!
+Why?
+----
+One of the things that makes me happiest is building small tools that I use every day. This seems to be the case even when I'm the _only_ one that uses them! Every time those characters jolt forth, invoking something from the void that hadn't existed before, I feel a twinge of satisfaction.
+
+The most effective way I've found to accomplish this comes in the form of small bash scripts, composed in traditional unix fashion. Every time I work on one of these scripts, I can feel more of the bash surface-area sticking in my mind. This has had a noticeable side effect of improving my abilities in everyday shell-scripting tasks.
