DS-Ex ... what?

If you're wondering about the title, it's a pretty bad wordplay on:
a) Deus Ex Machina (lit. "god from the machine") which in essence is a plot-device used by authors too lazy to conclude their stories in an internally-consistent manner. I look forward to using it whenever I am too lazy to finish a post, while maintaining internal consistency with the nature of the blog.
b) DS, the shortened form of Darksentinel which is the username/nickname I most commonly use in my online interactions. 'Twas conceived in around 'oh three or 'oh four of the third millenium succeeding the birth of our lord.

DS Ex Machina: Darksentinel from the machine.

If you don't think it's that good, I'd like to point out that coming up with a good, original title for a blog is tricky. It's not like writing a new Mills&Boon book, which can be done in the form "His [adjective] [synonym of 'Mistress']". Or a Harry Potter clone, which can be of the "[First name] [Last name] and the [Adjective] [Noun]" variety.
