If you have visited this site more than once or twice you may have lately noticed some cosmetic changes. The changes may be for the better, for the worst, or perhaps they don’t mean a thing ’cause they ain’t got that swing … doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wab doo-wab-di-wah.
But change can be good. Every once in awhile you got to get up and move that couch from the corner of the room to the middle or to the back or suspend it from the ceiling, or burn it.
So I decided to move the chair, so to speak, because Blogger made it relatively easy to make blog changes by enabling a “drag-and-drop” features for layout. One might still end up having to search for some HTML help as I did to solve my e-mail problem, at least I think it’s fixed, but making layout changes are now much simpler.
My friend Sally wrote me today on one of my personal accounts to say she is a big fan of head cheese. Being of Polish descent and from the North (Massachusetts), she explained, she likes head cheese made with pig’s feet. Like hogshead, I’ve also never eaten pig’s feet but I think if I had a choice — like I was stranded on an island — between having to subsist on pig’s feet or hogshead I believe the pig’s feet would win hands (or feets) down.
Now if you are wondering how I bolted from blog talk to pig’s feet let me just say, dude, here, anything is possible. No, Sally told me she tried to e-mail me via the address that was in the upper right hand chimney or column of my blog only to have a bounced message “Mailer-daemon” notice. If you are interested in how I solved my problem … well, it doesn’t matter whether you are interested or not. But you knew that. You knew deep down in your heart that I was going to tell you how I solved the problem and nothing short of a catastrophic earthquake or the Rapture would prevent me.
I went back to the same “gadget” or “widget” or “thingamajig” I previously used. But to link with my Hotmail account, I searched Blogger for some HTML mojo I could use within this gadget. Lo and behold, I found it. And, ta-daaa, now mail may be sent through the old mail bag.
Alas, the world is once again safe for pig’s feat head cheese, and thus I have another blog post down. Isn’t the world a great place?
