I am hopeful ever'one is enjoyin' the new look

I am pretty satisfied with my new template, and even if my testin' of the MT3 site proves successful and I eventually move to the updated package, I 'spect I likely will keep this look for awhile. All sites seem to have their own flavor, so to speak, and I have always thought my niche was content, content, content. Such bein' the primary focus of my bloggin' efforts, I wanted the newest content to be as close to that infernal Blog 'Splosion frame as possible.

In the words of one former comment 'pon my blog, I seem oft' to be blogging about the most mundane minutiae,* which, by the way, were the kindest words anyone has ever said of my bloggin' efforts, to date, I really do work very very hard to bring ya the stories that are delightful, that have not been posted on ever' big dog blog in the blogosphere already, and that likely did not make the big board over on FARK. I once heard someone say blogs are a sort of filter, I would have to agree that I filter through a lot of stuff to point out those things I thought were novel, funny, or noteworthy. Hence, by not only my references with regard to such links, the very selection of the links themselves, provide a bit of insight into my own personality. With such in mind, I 'spect I hold such beliefs in my thoughts when I am readin' your blogs. Jes' somethin' to think 'bout, I guess.

A lot of my stuff, however, is original stuff, hopefully showcasin' that creative little imp that lives somewhere on the left side of my brain. I know it is a bit bizarre, but it is 'spose to be. He is a purty strange lookin' little fellow, too. I'll provide ya a picture, later, in the Nightly Navel Gazin' Report™. Ya'll are readin' them, right?

Then sometimes I whine. It seems that a lot of us do. Bloggin' as therapy seems to be a good thesis topic, huh? I still am threatenin' to get myself into a PhD program some place. I have had a thesis topic in mind for over a score of years now: The advancement of women's rights and its correlation to major military conflicts. Like, who cares, right? I would rather write fiction than do all that research. It's hard to blog when ya are busy lookin' through a bunch of dusty ol' documents. ;)

*Ya gotta know I didn't make that statement up, as I would have otherwise typed it bloggin''bout.

Gotta say, Tiger, that I do like the new digs! Way to go, my friend.

I approve. Font's a little small in my browser, but that's what those cheap reading glasses from Wal-Mart are for.

So they tell me.

Maybe it's my affinity for tradition, but I liked the old set up better

Hi Tig! Sheesh, I slink off to cope with family strife and a whopping sinus infection, and you go and totally rearrange the house on me...!

I like the new look--it loads faster, and it's not as cluttered. 'Nita likes! :-)

And your stance on the PhD topic would be...

When you publish, I'll do another one in support - we can become world leading experts on women causing wars :-)
