Yeah, I've changed the template around again. Part of it is boredom, but much of the (ahem) experimentation stems from a larger issue, which is my growing dissatisfaction with what this blog has been over the past year or so. I enjoy blogging far too much to walk away, but I don't want to be just another macaw in the birdhouse, merely a repackager of bromides.
After 7-1/2 years of blogging, I find that I'm less interested in writing about politics than ever, especially in an era where politics are as comprehensively wrongheaded as they are now. So I need to start doing less of it and start writing about other things more. So I will. The politics won't go away entirely, because silence in the face of lunacy isn't acceptable. Yet, yet. . . this feature needs to be about more than that.

" this feature needs to be about more than that."
YES!
there are more better things to talk about than politics (which usually places one into a partisan position).
I for one want to know where you stand on lawn games.
I would have a haiku week.
WBP,
I'm agin' 'em.
Dan,
A haiku week would
Work especially well if
Picklesworth's involved
The Jarts of Justice
Raining down on Mr. D.
Incorrect answer.
are Jarts even legal anymore?
"The Jarts of Justice" would be a good name for an album.
Gino, I don't think Jarts are legal any more; at least the ones with the points.
For a minister
You've got quite a mean streak there,
Rev'rend Picklesworth
A man of the cloth
With a tongue like a lash, with
love from Iowa
Bocce balls will creep
Like angry iron ninjas
To kiss your sweet sleep.
The horseshoe of fate
Drops on the economy
Unexpectedly
The frogs say "croak-it"
But we know it's called cro-KAY
No, it's not Cricket
