I am winding down Livejournal, my account for which expires in January. To that end, I have been compiling a Word document of my old entries, for what purpose, I do not know. Maybe a publishing sensation! At all events, the old entries have been fun to read ( Read more... )

My last post listing things about me didn't generate as much conversation as I would have liked. Being the comment whore I am, I decided to try again. This list was a lot harder to write. It took me about 3 weeks to do. When you get to no. 24, it's hard to think up a no. 25 ( Read more... )

So, here you are, chickens, the moment you've all been waiting for. Twenty-five random things about your Uncle Cliffy ( Read more... )

1. The news about LiveJournal's possible demise has made me very sad. It's like losing a friend -- though I realize I haven't been all that personal in my entries lately.

I'm thinking something's wrong when the high point of my day was washing the dishes.

I turn your attention to two blogs. The first is one that Miss R turned me on to, written by a friend of hers she has known since birth, Max Gordon. I especially recommend you have a gander at Jesusland, a pretty powerful rant about ... well, it's about a lot of ( Read more... )
