Another slow, summer day. Happy holidays, all. A great column is scheduled for early this week. In fact, look for it tomorrow afternoon. Also, we’ll have five PPN episodes and more rants than one can shake a blog at. Stay tuned.

There’s a great column coming on Wednesday. I think it’s Wednesday. That one is the surprisingly good alternative submitted to TPC. Later, brain willing, I’ll have something more substantial. Four more PPN episodes ahead too. Good times.

PS: We near yet another blog anniversary!

A heckuva column. It’s all about … RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA!!! You’ll surely enjoy it, Shirley. Plus, there may be a second column later in the week! I was going to run “Russia” today, but, as only about six of you have shown up so far, we’ll wait and do it right on a Wednesday.

I’m not sending either of these to TPC as I don’t know what’s going on there. They are free to pick up either (or both) though I tend to suspect my topics are about 4 SD outside the local wheelhouse. If I learn they’re publishing this week/month/year, I may have a special just for them – either about a fox I saw or a baseball game I declined to attend. Serious stuff.

This coming week will feature more (likely thwarted) attempts at embedding media in the new normal of WP. There’s more cool news coming from the FP realm. And, as usual, I’ll have my weekly column. Additionally, it’s my goal to soon visit upon you a little more short fiction! It’ll be a grand week. See you then. P
