Sign o' the Times: The New Old Banner!

Minions, oh, minions, do yourself a favour and "refresh" your page if you don't see this snazzy new banner. You dig?

It's a more sophisticated tilt of the hat to my original banner on my original blog, The Cunting Linguist. I don't remember my original thinking for why not to do a tweak on that banner for here, but I've obviously had a rethink a year and a half later, so here's what ya get.



I need to take some time in the next couple weeks and do something I dread: Go back and read nearly 2 years worth of postings in order to find things worth sticking in the sidebar. I don't read my stuff often. It's a pretty fucking mixed bag, the doing of it. Something typically best done with a big bottle of red wine and no place to go in the morning.

I'm not particularly enthralled at the prospect, but it's time, man, it's time. It'll probably be in keeping with this "time of growth", and might do me good to remember what hellish muck I've crawled through the last two years. All there in its not-so-splendid blogging glory.

I mean, the supposed "best of" in the sidebar really has not been updated in about 18 months or so. I suspect I've got one or two worth archiving in that time, so. I'll be sure you letcha know when I update the list, which'll have new section headings and even more organization... plus a lot of shit will be turfed.

Now I asked people for links they wanted me to "blogroll" a while back but things went nuts. Please resend your links to me, and I'll be happy to check it out. Thanks. Or, if you never sent it and want to now, go fer it.

Also... I know I haven't been posting letters, and I've even been shitty at answering them of late, but I'm back in action here and do want letters to answer, so please hit me up. Or just say hello. I like hellos. Or ask a question. Both work. Drop me a line.

Ooh, I'm so glad I've changed banners. It felt so boring around here. Much, much better. Much more work to do... but hey. So, send me them questions or dilemmas and let's see what we can get going here.
