Sunday Sampler
I would like to thank Leigh over at The Spinning Pen for notifying me about the newest contest from the creators of NaNoWriMo (the contest to write an entire novel in one month).
They have a new one, to EDIT your novel in one month.
It is the 100th Anniversary of Kellogg’s Corn Flakes - they have a nice website with a timeline and a “Share your memories” section.
I admit, I ate Kellogg’s cereals every morning throughout my entire childhood. . .hmmm, wonder if that has anything to do with my strange personality today? LOL
I’m seriously considering getting “enterthelaughter” as a domain and using Wordpress, since Yahoo webhosting has a super-easy installation now (I tested it with digitaldoorway, but I don’t want such a long URL if I move the blog again)
Would I be smarter to stay here, since I just went through the hassle of notifying everyone of THIS new address, or go ahead and move to a more stable platform at my own domain?
Also have a cute joke for you - Happy Sunday to everyone!
100 Year Old Twins
There were these twin sisters just turning one hundred years old. The editor of the local paper told a photographer to get over there and take some pictures of these 100-year-old twins.
One of the twins was hard of hearing and the other could hear quite well.
The photographer asked them to sit on the sofa and the deaf one said to her twin, "WHAT DID HE SAY?"
"He said, 'WE GOTTA SIT OVER THERE ON THE SOFA'! " said the other.
"Now get a little closer together," said the cameraman.
Again, "WHAT DID HE SAY?"
"HE SAYS SQUEEZE TOGETHER A LITTLE."
So they wiggled up close to each other.
"Just hold on for a bit longer, I've got to focus a little," said the photographer.
Yet again - "WHAT DID HE SAY?"
"HE SAYS HE'S GONNA FOCUS!"
With a big grin the deaf twin shouted out, "OH MY GOD! BOTH OF US?"

Yet another friend has gotten the shaft from Blogger - Mac, over at Posthuman Blues is having issues. . .posting only to have it vanish into the ether shortly thereafter.I’m seriously considering getting “enterthelaughter” as a domain and using Wordpress, since Yahoo webhosting has a super-easy installation now (I tested it with digitaldoorway, but I don’t want such a long URL if I move the blog again)

I would recommend switching to your own domain and Wordpress, Marti. You'll have WAY more control over your blog and you won't have to worry about it crashing or simply disappearing on you. As far as your domain name, I personally like "enterthelaughter" because it just sort of rings for me. And if you're worried about switching URL's yet again, at least this will be the last time you'll have to worry about it. *smile*
Anyway, that's my two cents. If you switch, be sure and drop me a line!
Love your blog!
...Good luck which ever way you go.

If you moved to a different domain, I don't think it would be a big deal...I would imagine if you posted your new address on this website and left it up for awhile, your readers would find you with no problem.
I still eat cornflakes. That explains the weird things I do ...

Glad to have a running mate for the Nanoedmo - I've started compiling a list of step-by-step things I'm going to focus on aside from the line-by-lines. I'm actually really looking forward to this! Glad we can cheer each other on!
