Ch-ch-changes
There are some changes underway here at the blog. Nothing major; basically, the blog will now take the form of a CBS animated series in which a gruff retired army colonel (voiced by Fran Drescher) adopts an adorable but street-wise orphan (Olympic gold medalist Mary Lou Retton) and her magical elf friend (the always-hilarious Robin Williams), learning numerous lessons about life and love. Basically, the merchandising opportunities were too amazing to resist – when Arby’s is calling you with a proposal for an “Elfin Meal,” you best pick up the phone.
Actually, the only change that has been made is the addition of “comments” capability, thanks to some fine technical advice from our friend Crash Palmer. So if you feel the need to add an “amen” or a “right on, brother” to one of my entries, or even a “what the hell is your damn problem,” just left click and unburden yourself. It’s unhealthy to keep these feelings bottled up inside you, although not quite as unhealthy as your strange obsession with Lou Diamond Phillips.
I’m considering a few other changes, though, so let me know if there’s anything else you’d like to see. I like to think of this as YOUR weblog, although of course it is not, and if you represent otherwise the good people at Elfin Magic, Inc. are likely to sue your pants off.
