Welcome!
Bookworm on Feb 12 2008 at 11:49 am | Filed under: Uncategorized
Welcome to the new and improved Bookworm Room. This is my second and, I hope, last server migration. I think I’ve finally found my permanent home. Right now, I’m playing beat the deadline and, since I blogged like a maniac yesterday, I’m content to let this page rest for a few hours. I’d appreciate it, though, if you could determine whether the comments sign-up works. In theory, once you’re logged in, you’re mine forever, but I’m not entirely sure if all systems are go.
UPDATE: And what would I do without my blessedly wonderful readers…. (See Earl’s comment.)
UPDATE II: Although I can’t see it, apparently the word “register” is somewhere in a very subtle place, and you have to follow that link (once only, I believe) before you can comment at the blog. I apologize for putting you all through this, but it should help a lot with the spam. At my old blog, Askimet blocked about 95% of all spam, but with about 80,000 spams coming through per year, a lot was still headed my way, and I needed to weed it all out manually.

Well, I figured out the Registration — it would help (us retards) if “Register” were bolded, underlined, or otherwise distinguished.
Just to get back at you…..wouldn’t you like to edit this:
“I’m think I’ve finally found my permanent home.”
I thought maybe so…….
Well it appears I’m smart enough to register, though that might not be obvious from my comments.
Looking pretty good here BW.
Merci beaucoup. All praise, though, goes to the Webloggin editor.
I figured it out but I’m not sure I would have without Earl.
I’m technically challenged for the second time in as many days. Yesterday I got my first cell phone which represents learning curve #1 - and this sign-up was a bit tricky but w/Earl’s hint about ‘register’ I’ve passed curve #2 and ready to go back to the cell phone manual.
Aside from the fact that I can directly correlate the burnout of millions of brain cells with the mere presence of my kids, they have also had a more directly deleterious affect on me: I find myself unable to so much as contemplate any sort of technical puzzle involving electronics. It’s so much easier to say “Kid #2, go hook up the DVD player! Kid #1, would you please tell my computer how to do this???
After a few years of this, it’s amazing I can still operate the television remote. But I can’t seem to stop myself. It’s SO much easier to just call them to come do whatever it is.
Before kids, I was not in the least bit technically challenged. I was always the one who could make stuff work. No longer. I blame it entirely on them.
Seems to work fine!
