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.

Mail From a Journalist!
I got a very nice e-mail from Birmingham Post-Herald columnist Wade Kwon, who was apparently Googlebating and found where I had quoted his article about the Pulitzer Committee's fondness for Alabama stories. Nothing makes my heart skip a beat like getting a note from someone who writes for a living, and even more so when it's someone whose work I enjoy reading.

Wade has a Yahoo!Groups site where you can subscribe to get his latest columns. (I just became the newest member.)

Wade had some kind works for Possumblog, and further, demonstrated his knowledge of the Internet Anagram Server by noting that "Terry Oglesby" spells "Terry, blog? Yes!" As an encouragement to Wade to start his own blog and become assimilated into the Axis of Weevil, I wrote back to thank him, and to divulge the portentous omens that "Wade Kwon" spells "Naked? Wow!", and "Wade, blog? Yes!" spells "Sage Boy Weld". Taken together, they obviously signal a great convergence of something. Or not.
