Hey Cool!
I just went over 10,000 page views! I would like to thank lucky number 10k reader (which just happened to be me--I am, after all, my most faithful reader.)

As dense and fully packed as a stopped up septic tank, Possumblog continues to confront reality with a devil-may-care attitude and a healthy disregard for book-learning. Thanks to all who have made this moment possible, notably Miss Crowell, who taught me to touch-type. And to my mother, who taught me not to put bobby pins into the electrical outlets. (Actually, I figured that out myself after blowing a fuse at our old house--Mom just sort of reinforced the lesson. With vigor.)

Possumblog will continue, at least for the next fifteen to twenty minutes, as it has for the past months--as a completely idiotic game of tail-chasing ineptitude and strange inscrutability, with an emphasis on defying categorization. As noted smart girl and Axis of Weevil Ministress of the Money Thing Elizabeth Spiers said yesterday in her entry on blog taxonomy :

...most blogs I read completely defy categorization, and I read them precisely because of that. I mean, where the hell would you possibly put Tony Pierce? LakersBlog? KournikovaBlog? Or Terry Oglesby? SoccerDadBlog? Jim Treacher? CompletelyRandomShi... anyway.

Ah yes, anyway indeed.

So then, once more it is time to set the choke to "3," squeeze the primer bulb, depress the throttle lever and pull the cord.
