We lost a handful of posts in the recent Blogger hiccup...

In case you were wondering, we lost a handful of posts in the recent Blogger hiccup...some art by Jack, a finger of the day by Mona, and an in depth look at Ex-Governor Mike Huckabee's Presidential prospects by National Affairs Editor Pablo Fanque. And, no, we had no backups. We back up once a week, alas.

Barbara Bush (Sr) in a swimsuit, The Brady Bunch porn movie, and other oddities


Babs Bush Sr. in her swimsuit

This is just some blogger navel gazing, when it gets down to it. For some reason, this blog has been getting a bazillion hits this week...the biggest draw: Barbara Bush Sr. in her younger years in a bathing suit (600 hits this week!), the Brady Bunch porn movie, that perennial draw, the Enunclaw Horse Sex story, and The Walribi tribe penis shaking custom. Out of 3,500 articles here over the last 4 1/2 years, it's the juicy and sometimes scandalous ones that draw the perennial crowds.



OK, I'll take it. Somehow my poetry, art, biography, and political commentary never draw quite those same numbers. . .

Oops!

My list of favorite websites and blogs was deleted today as I was using the new Blogger In Beta tools. I'll get them back eventually, but for now, why not go bare?

A Blogger Meltdown, mostly of my own authoring?

You may have noticed the sporadic postings (partly due to being in California all week) in the last few days? I completely pooched my blogspot template. It seems partly due to collisions between last year's new blogger switchover and the new beta blogger sandbox. I am still missing a lot of the marginalia and widgets, but I have mostly recovered everything else. Except (!!!) the post date now appears beneath the first post of a day. And it's huge. And ugly. I've deleted all references to it, changed the color to white in the CSS section of the template, attempted to move it above the posy title somehow, and pasted in sections of old templates that I know looked good. All to no avail. I had one problem a couple years ago, where I sent the whole template to blogger and they immediately figured out what I'd done wrong. I have to throw myself on their mercy. I am a bonehead.

Almost There In No Time--what's with that?


click to enlarge - I'm pretty sure this is the guy I saw standing
next to Highway 99 this morning, holding a carboard sign
with his woeful tale scrawled in grease pencil...


keep saying such terrible things about me?

Blogger Play - A new toy from Blogger


Blogger has just released a new toy--Blogger Play. "Shortly after Blogger launched photo uploading two years ago, one of our engineers whipped up a web page that would show us the pictures that were being uploaded in real time. The result was fun, often beautiful, but above all, compelling. We couldn’t stop watching." It's pretty cool. Go here to view the uploaded pictures of all of us on Blogger. It makes for an interesting screensaver...
