While this might be a way to keep the attention of lazy casual strangers, it's an odd way to treat your regular readers. If you leave it like this, yours will be the only site among dozens I regularly look at for freshly updated content (blogs, newspapers, journals, news aggregators, etc) where no trace whatsoever of that new content is visible when I first load the page! And while I won't say I'm not going to visit your site for that reason, I do wish you would find some other way to do what you're doing here. Nothing like a challenge to your ingenuity, old friend!

Here's what you do:

Read Dave's journal from your Friends page. That first post there won't show up because it's set in the future. At least, that's how my friend's page act.

Meh. It does work! But your actual blog's "first entry" is still a gigantic block of unchanging text filling up the visible area upon loading, as well as after one Page Down. No site whose main attraction is regular fresh content should hide that content from the users arriving on the page. But whatever, it's your blog, and who am I to question the design sensibilities of the maker of Dave Littler's New Deal?

Is there an RSS feed for this thing?

There sure is! It's located at the bottom of the left sidebar. Right-clicking and choosing "copy link address" gave me this:
