Tumblr URLs
Two of my favorite LJers are Gary and Renata. They just reported back that the URL I cited on my Danica Patrick post the other day -- it WORKS, even for non-Tumblr LJers! Woohoo! I've been soooo frustrated not to be able to amuse you lovely readers with some of my finds over there.
So, as a test, here are a couple of my recent "reblogs" (as aficionados* refer to photos one reposts to his/her own Tumblr blog) --

Everyone PLEASE try them and let me know what happens; since I'm a Tumblr member, it does no good for ME to check them.

* Not to brag on my Spanish (not much, anyway), but that term -- beloved of Hemingway -- IS pretty cool. So, someone's "afición" is a penchant, the object of their enthusiasm -- and it came to be used, ever so infra-dig, to mean the passion for bullfighting. (Raising the collateral question of "infra-dig"...which refers in 50s slang to "digging" or liking something a lot.)
** More not-bragging: I take it that the Portuguese neologism "safismo" (the name of this Tumblr) is a pun on their word for sophistry, combining it with the cognate for "Sappho" -- and, sure enough, there are sexy photos on it of women -- such as this lovely thing.
