We’re still trying to deal with problems from the move changing hosts. As the comment to the left notes, my prior host, GoDaddy, retained data from all my backups, and I am about to embark on a war with them over that. Among the lost data was changes in my blogroll over the last six months. I’ve [...] Things are inching back to regular, such as it is. some sort of SQL glitch seems to have eaten everything since early March, which I’n trying to fix. Meanwhile, I may be posting from a wedding in Lafayette, LA. Comments [...] … expect posting to [...] I’ve added two features to the blog: A mobile version that is all text and automatically comes up on your mobile phone. You get the headlines and can click to view text of the posts and comments. It’s fast and easy to read on an iPhone. Comments from fake email addresses are deleted. I spot-check email addresses, which is a nuisance, and delete comments from anyone where the test email bounces. For some reason, the Medicaid fraud thread has produced several barrages of repeat comments from fake email addresses.

If you click “advanced” you can search in tags and categories. And thus if you are trying to remember the name of that blues band from Tupelo I blogged about, put “Tupelo” in the search [...] I’ve been thinking about adding a new rule to the commenting guidelines, but then went back and re-read the existing guidelines, and decided (following as my precedent Griwsold v.

About comments
I’m getting unpleasant and obnoxious emails from Bellesouth that go beyond disagreement about what’s been written on the blog, and I’m ready to go to sleep. So, rather than worry about what idiocy she may place in comments on my blog while I doze, I’m setting her to moderation. She can spew her bile elsewhere, and, [...]
