Some changes, German aromas

Posts have been sporadic lately. Granted, by most blogs’ standards, I am pretty punctual. I’ve missed nine days this year. Not bad. But not what I planned this site for. I remember in 2000, I used to post up to four or five times a day. I want to get back to that.

Part of it’s my crazy travel schedule for work. Part of it is that I am now a senior vice-president at the agency, so I have a lot more responsibilities. Part of it is a trap I got myself into. By always putting a video and link of the day, I have often waited hours to post, looking for something funny by someone else to post, and that’s not fair to you (or me).

So I’ve come to a decision. There are 10-12 of you that regularly send me links and videos. I thank you and I will continue to use them, but I will no longer slavishly look for links and videos, myself. If I get them great, if not, the post goes up anyway, and no longer at just midnight EST only. I need to be more spontaneous and post when it strikes me.

I want to spend more time writing, taking pictures and drawing cartoons. And dammit, more anagrams! Some of my older readers remember some of the esoteric things I used to do, like make the titles into puzzles, have the first letter of each sentence spell out something funny, etc.

Those days are back.

    Oh yeah, gimmie anagrams or gimmie death, well maybe not literally death but a weak facsimile of it or perhaps not even that strong a word, maybe just give me a straight up cappuccino with 1 sugar thx, a nice chair and a good light.

    It’s alright, Davester, nobody can cast the first stone.

    A blog is like a baby. You start one because it’s fun, but it soon demands much more attention than you thought it would.
