Older

M y dear friend, Blog, is celebrating a birthday today, marking the start of a sixth year.

You probably aren't sure what sort of present is appropriate for a blog. I wasn't sure myself, but after I thought about it for awhile, I decided it would be nice enough to ante up for another year's worth of hosting. A pinch of money: much easier to give than the gift of time (which is what Blog really needs if it is to avoid rotting in the year to come).

Happy blogoversary. Hope you're getting through your dis in one piece!

"When you are at school and learn grammar grammar is very exciting. I really do not know that anything has every been more exciting than diagramming sentences. I suppose other things may be more exciting to others when they are at school but to me undoubtedly when I was at school the really completely exciting thing was diagramming sentences and that has been to me ever since the one thing that has been completely exciting and completely completing. I like the feeling the everlasting feeling of sentences as they diagram themselves." Gertrude Stein, "Poetry and Grammar."
