| | I once, in Detroit, discovered I'd left my anti-seizure meds and blood thinner back in New York and needed to step into a drugstore and negotiate with a pharmacist for an emergency refill. He was dubious about emergency meds, wanted to see a prescription or at least an empty bottle, but a lady pharmacist recognized my voice from the radio, having been a fan of my show, and she also was his boss so thanks to a long radio career I was spared a stroke or a heart attack that morning. Life offers us magical connections, which astonish us and for which we are grateful. I loved that show, did it for forty years, and it was all because my fundamentalist family refused to buy a TV back when everyone was getting one so I was left with a Zenith radio and listened to the last of the old radio shows, Fibber McGee and Gunsmoke and Fred Allen, which I loved, and twenty years later I launched a show with cowboys and a detective and small-town folks in it, and enough time had passed so that it was considered a novelty, not an imitation, and suddenly I had a career, one I never planned on.

| Background I was packaging up a website as a PWA (progressive web application) so that it could be used offline at a conference, and I wanted to have some analytics collected while offline. After a lot of searching, I came across Piwik Pro, a capable analytics package that specifically included capabilities for offline analytics tracking. Perfect! However, their code assumes that you are building your project using a framework with a packaging-based workflow. My project was simple, vanilla html and javascript.
