Along the way, I’ve hit some weird weird issues.  I’ve had some zany ideas.  I’ve had plenty of crashes, and needed to use some clever problem solving to get my birds back in the air.  I’m going to share all of the knowledge that I can here, so that you can hopefully learn, or at least laugh a little at my expense.
