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.

Groundhog Day

As I was driving in to work today, I got to thinking, "Hey, it's been hours since it last rained." And then it...it...DIDN'T START RAINING!

Of course, it's still awfully cloudy, and I have a rather thick coating of mildew, but at least I didn't need a snorkel to get to my desk.

As for American Idol, my only comment is, what was the deal with Clay standing facing Ruben right before they announced the winner? It looked like he was going to kiss him on the cheek or something. In any event, again, congratulations to an incredibly talented young fellow and to his family, and a special thanks to Ruben for his unfailing support of Alabama and of Birmingham. It's not easy for us to get positive press, but his success and willingness to tie that success to his hometown means a lot.
