“Encephalosponge” is a word I made up as a sort of play-on-words, thinking it was a good word to describe myself. The Greek root encephalo- roughly means “pertaining to the brain,” and I’m assuming you know what a sponge is. I used to think my brain was something like a sponge because I loved to soak up all the knowledge around me. Now I think it sounds a bit silly, but I keep it for posterity.
This blog is a continuous work-in-progress. I use it to capture my thoughts on whatever I feel like writing about. It’s usually some combination of WordPress, Ubuntu, book and music reviews, medicine, and personal finance. It might seem a little scattered, but I guess that’s because my interests are scattered too. I’m trying to focus the content down into a few discreet topics. I like to write when I’m feeling inspired, and this blog also gives me an excuse to write.

I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! -Patrick Henry to the Virginia House of Burgesses (1775)
I suspect you mean ‘posterity’ and not ‘posteriority’. Non?
