Why create an ?ideal reader??
2007-12-26 20:49:00 In blogging, like any other aspect of life, trying to please everyone usually results in pleasing no one.

Upgrade your Bad Behavior plugin
2007-12-06 14:04:00 I learned the hard way yesterday that something had gone wrong with the generally well-behaved Bad Behavior plugin.

2007-12-05 16:39:00 We don’t mean to lie to you. It’s just that we think blogging is the best thing since sliced bread, and our enthusiasm tends to overwhelm our sense of reality from time to time.
