The Evolution of Taiwan Pirate

Derek Murphy has gone corporate. I've spent the last month making some new websites, which can be found here:
www.derekmurphyart.com
www.holyblasphemy.net
www.paper-perfect-editing.com

They aren't perfect, but they're unique and look pretty good and give me a platform from which to cast my more professional ideas. I don't, however, have anywhere to talk about cool personal things like searching for treasure in Taiwan, so I think I'll keep this blog on the side.

In the news the other day, somebody from (somewhere in Europe? I'm too lazy to double-check) found a bunch of old gold and silver coins from about 100bc. That's fantastic. How much was the cache worth? A couple hundred thousand. However, he warns that metal detecting is a hobby and not likely to every make one rich. My thoughts exactly. It's all too easy for me to dream of treasure in Taiwan, and I'll still keep looking, but Taiwan has seen so much construction and recontruction that the ground is full of old machine parts and such.

At any rate - I'll keep looking so keep checking back for a blog post that looks like this one:
"$100,000,000 worth of gold bars discovered in by expat in Taiwan!!"

New editing and proofreading site.

I've migrated my site after discovering my host 247-host is almost always down. My new editing site is mypaperperfect.com.
