2008-07-25The template seems to be fixed! I still want to do further fiddling, but at least it’s not throwing error messages every which way. Thanks, Billy!

- So, I?ve been a little busy? (Raquel)October 17, 2008No, really I have a good excuse for not posting. It’s not that aliens invaded or that I was turned into a zombie–it’s slightly harder to believe than that. Are you ready? My parents actually came for a visit. (If this doesn’t sound unbelievable to you, you’ve obviously never owned goats.) The main point [...]sharppointythings
- An author I am not.October 17, 2008But I could have been. Some time ago I was contacted by a national publisher of local themed history books inquiring if I would like to author a Peoria history book. It would be formatted similar to those postcard books of which many of you surely own but would this new series would consist of [...]PeoriaIllinoisan

- Local: Some Lincoln linkin?October 17, 2008Long-time readers know I’m a bug Lincoln fan. In fact, it was the disrespect Ron Paul had for Lincoln that prompted me to NOT support the libertarian-minded candidate. Peoria has a visit from Honest Abe yesterday. I couldn’t attend, but blogger/education activist Diane Vespa attended the event with her daughter. She has a wonderful post about [...]Billy Dennis

A Dark And Quiet Room
Just a quiet corner of the Net where I will come to sit and think and write. Maybe you will find that I have something worthwhile to say.

Have you thought about self-hosting your site?
see, I told you you looked good in pink. :0)
Wow, did Arianna get ahold of your blog? (I’m not intending that to be critical…it’s just that your blog is soooo pink!)
BTW, I just took a second glance at your template and think I had a seizure.
ok, so this is weird.
I cleared my web cache to make sure. I loaded the page and the top is blue and the stuff that is supposed to be blue is pink. And this post said “2 comments”. Clicked through to here and everything is blue and all 4 comments were there.
ok, never mind. It’s right now.
Maybe I need more sleep.
