Possumblog

Not in the clamor of the crowded street, not in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but in ourselves, are triumph and defeat.--Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

REDIRECT ALERT! (Scroll down past this mess if you're trying to read an archived post. Thanks. No, really, thanks.)

Due to my inability to control my temper and complacently accept continued silliness with not-quite-as-reliable-as-it-ought-to-be Blogger/Blogspot, your beloved Possumblog will now waddle across the Information Dirt Road and park its prehensile tail at http://possumblog.mu.nu.

This site will remain in place as a backup in case Munuvia gets hit by a bus or something, but I don't think they have as much trouble with this as some places do. ::cough::blogspot::cough:: So click here and adjust your links. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it's one of those things.

Looks like The Teeming Millions finally have someplace to hang out again. After the original Straight Dope Message Board was hacked, a decision was made to upgrade software, but there has apparently been some sort of publishing-goob meltdown with The Chicago Reader. In the meantime, in order to restore peace in Cecilland, an temporary alternative site has been set up at http://bb.bbboy.net/straightdope. Everyone has to reregister, but it’s relatively painless, and I have already posted my first cracking good answer.

What’s so funny is the continued pleas from the SD admins for everyone to play nice and remember we are guests in someone else’s house. Obviously, they should know better than to try to make a bunch of delinquents behave.
