I can’t understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I’m frightened of the old ones. — John Cage

Heard that on the radio today, thought it was worth sharing. Thanks tonight go out to Cara K., Timothy M. (!!!), and Lorie J. for their donations. I’m very grateful.

I’ve just received my first comment spam, which like acne is one of the less welcome signs of growth. Therefore, comments from new visitors will wait in the Mod Lounge until I approve them. Once you have at least one approved comment, you won’t be auto-moderated again.

Thanks tonight go out to Sharon B., Annimator, and Michelle P. (ultra thanks!) for their generous contributions. Welcome also to our new readers and Facebook followers, many of them lured into my clutches by an old friend of ours.

I just made some changes to the commenting system, and enabled a method for adding images to posts. Feel free to experiment with it here.
