A ColdFusion Nerd's love for Lorem Ipsum

As a distraction from the insanity of client development, I thought it would be fun to mark off one of the ColdFusion to-do items on my list.

Like any good ColdFusion nerd, I have a list of things I want to accomplish with my favorite programming language.  There are user defined functions on my list, Mango Blog plugins on my list, ColdFusion websites on the list, you name it.  

The list also contains several CF-related blog post topics I would love to write about.  I'm definitely no Ben Nadel or Raymond Camden, but I do have my fair share of blogability in me.
