parting is such sweet sorrow

Menometrorrhagiacs,

There comes a time in every young blog's life when it must leave the nest and strike out on its own.  Seeking new freedoms and finding new responsibilities, the maturing blog often turns its attentions to prolonged introspection and increasingly sophisticated subjects.  The blog fumbles through this period learning the wherefores of courting readers, often emerging, like the butterfly from its chrysalis, a wholly new creation bonded to the audience best suited to it (though, perhaps not the audience it had imagined in its youth).  The ripening blog then continues to engage progressively more complex ideas, unfolding them before, and occasionally with, its readers.

As the menometrorrhagia blog embarks upon the new phase of its life, leaving the comfortable nest of blog.com behind, you can rest assured that none of that crap will happen.  This blog will continue in the fine tradition of vulgarity and adolescent humor that has always pervaded it.  So come along to see the new site, and don't forget to update your links.

As always,

llogg

P.S.  It appears blog.com is not handling this breakup in the mature manner one would have liked.  I received server error messages every time I tried to post this to the blog.  It's not you, blog.com, it's me.  There will be other bloggers, less disgusting bloggers without my penchant for the blog equivalent of fart-jokes.  Seriously, let's not fight about this. I'm moving on, and you will too. Eventually.

Probably.

2 - billy, wtf are you talking about? you shouldn't have to sign up for opera to read and comment on the blog. (unlike blogger when you have anonymous comments turned off -- hence my blogger account, hypocrite.) (Comment this)

3 - billy, my apologies. I didn't realize anonymous comments was defaulted to "off". Anonymous comments are now on and you won't have to sign up for anything to comment. (Comment this)

5 - Tried to post a comment to the new site but I got the same server monkey thing that Kenny got. It said I wasn't typing in the anti-spammer sequence of characters correctly. Unless I forgot how to recognize and type 2b4d14, there's a negro in the woodpile. (Comment this)

6 - Weird about the server monkeys. I was able to post to the new blog from a school computer with no problem. I'll see if there's an option to turn off that spam protection thing and see if that fixes the problem. (Comment this)

7 - billy,
here's one thing that's great about opera:
internet explorer7 application: 607kb
firefox v1.8 application: 6.9Mb
opera v9.12 application: 77.5kb

it's just more than one-tenth the size of IE7 and just more than one-hundredth that of firefox. It has better features than IE7 and is more secure (less code = less opportunity for screwups). It's got almost all the features of the truly money firefox extensions, but they're all native, so no problems when the browser updates but the extensions don't. In my experience, Opera has also been more stable than firefox (fewer crashes).
