Yes, I am going to make an entry for today. I was so busy all day, I did not have time to read anyone's stuff today, so any of you regular readers who wrote a fantastic post today, as I read almost all of your blogs daily, please leave a link to it in a comment to this post so that I will not miss it.
Anyway, when I did finally get time to post, after close of business hours, although I have a lot of other things I could have done business wise, I decided I had better see how the showcase was going this week and get my entry in. Gosh, someone already had almost as many blogs linking to their entry as I have linking to my whole blog already. I guess I am not even going to be in contention this week.
However, as you can likely see if you read the post up above, already dated for June 8, 2003*, I decided, since, as part of the entry rules for this week's contest, you have to link to 3 other entries in the contest, to critique all the other entries. Can you believe I already spent 5 hours on what is posted in that entry? I am hitting hard, so I suppose some people's feeling will be hurt, and that is not my intention. I just believe telling the truth.
On another note, I noticed I got 5 more links to my blog since I last checked my standing in the Blogosphere Ecosystem, and I moved up fast from being a Gecko to now losing my legs again and being a green, yellow-bellied grass snake. I might bite, but it won't kill ya!
On yet another note, it seems that someone besides InstaPundit is finally on the top of the Blogosphere, but the new leader, showing to have 19,022** links to his site from other blogs in the Ecosystem, James at Parkway Rest Stop says there is "No Way!" and he has emailed NZ about it.
Although I had to go to her site and make a comment to cajole her to do so, maripat thanked me for the kind words*** I said about her in this post and said she blogrolled me. As Jay Solo**** has not done so, I suppose, even though I just gave her a link, I will give maripat one more.*****
Now, the last item on what is going to be the only post for today,****** I am looking for a bit of help from some of you higher technical knowledged bloggers. There are two things I have seen in some blogs that I would like to do with mine. The first thing I would like to know is: How do you get the extended remarks to open up in the same page with the original post? The second: What do I do to put that check box where you can choose to have all the links open up in a new window?
*If she was still alive, my mother would have been turning 68 on June 8, 2003. I do wish she was, because I miss her so much.
**Are there even that many blogs in existence currently?
***She did not point to the specific thing, but I am pretty sure it was because I stated that she owned all of *** Woods' CDs.
****I am unsure why I got slighted on Jay Solo's blogroll, but I think it is important to support the one who returns your favor.
*****It seems that maripat has discovered that like herself, there are a lot of people who were adopted blogging now.
******I am tired, also, so am not going to do my regular job of checking my spelling and grammar on this one tonight. Of course, I am not going to say that such will not happen in the future, because as anal as I am about my spelling mistakes and my grammar, I have been known to correcting entries I made way in the past if I happen to find a mistake, or figure out a better way to compose a sentence, or think of a better word that one I used, or think of something to add to make it more interesting, funny or more correct. And people wonder why I have 3 books almost completed but none published.
