Tra-la, It's May!
Posted by on Tuesday, May 1, 2007 in - 29 comments
Comments in the morning. I just had this flashback to four years ago and my newbie blogging reactions over how nice I thought it was getting up in the morning to a bunch of stuff to read. Even though the stats are still sort of collapsing (everyone seemingly migrating to the beer blog ever so …
Four Years. Four. Long. Years.

3628 posts over four years. That is an average of 3628 posts for every four year period. All the while I have made few observations of note on the war that began weeks before the blog did, on the state of Canadian politics, on me, on blogging. But I did great Friday bullet point chats. Yes! It …
Cheese Punting Is Down
Posted by on Thursday, April 19, 2007 in - leave a comment
As part of Wikiality Week, it is important to note that the rate of cheese punting around here has gotten somewhat embarrassing. My access to baubles and trinkets depends on hefty cheese punting teamwork. Your access to fabulous potential prizes is likewise a matter directly connected to boot …
Easter Monday Plans
Posted by on Monday, April 9, 2007 in - 10 comments
Easter Monday is the weirdest of holidays. A civic holiday in lieu of a religious holiday. No other religious holiday recognized in law is fixed to a day of the week so, appropriately for my present purposes, we still get the Monday off. • I have failed in my past Easter Monday plans. Since 2005 …

Our good friend and kind gifter John Donovan, of Castle Argghhh!, wrote as grand an obituary as ever I have read, sadly, to his own mother, Elizabeth Ann Meriwether Donovan, who passed away last Sunday. Our thoughts are with him.
Sports Pool 2007: The Sleeping Nieces Factor
Posted by on Tuesday, March 13, 2007 in - 10 comments
Sleeping nieces and other kidlies stand - or, rather, lay - between me and the computer. Just a brief note. I have signed up for one NCAA bracket run by Ian. My picks rock. Niagara is going to get into the final 64 and then smoke Kansas. • Which means the first question in this year's sports …
Sports Pool 2007: Syracuse Out!!!
Posted by on Sunday, March 11, 2007 in - 2 comments
In a shocking turn of events, the Syracuse Orange are not in the NCAA basketball championships. Syracuse.com's immediate reaction? • “For those of you not believing it, yes, Syracuse IS NOT in. I'm shocked. I thought they'd be in for sure. But when you started seeing Purdue, Illinois, Georgia …
My Inner Fabulousness Recognized...Again!

It is quite the thing to realize you move in certain circles, that you are recognized for what you really are and really really shall be...the real me...the me I know me to be: • “...as robust a blog as ever I've seen...” • My new pal Tanya shared today. "Robust" has a certain je ne sais quoi …
Friday Bullet Points In Absentia
Posted by on Thursday, February 22, 2007 in - 7 comments
I write this Thursday with no idea when I will be able to click the toggle from hide to unhide. One of my favorite things about my personal blog interface is the use of physical toggles and the other sorts of knobs and buttons one might see on a ship's console in a rerun of the 1970s episodes of …
Call Me Peep

Again, just short posts, • How can I bitch about stuff? • Somewhere a child cries. • I and the server masters still have no idea why there is a limit to the posting size. So I can only build this post a sentence at a time noting, for example, the interesting use - and decision to trigger …
