A New Look for the New Year 0
Happy New Year!
It was time to remodel. I’ve been working on this new theme the past few days. Please let me know of any problems you encounter by commenting on this post.
Misty Water-Colored Memories 0
Pamela Cytrynbaum rounds up reminiscences of parenthood:
Shocked and thrilled, I bellow back: “I love you, sweetie!!!” from behind my own closed door.
She replies: “NO, MA!! I SAID I LOVE YOU TUBE!!!!”

Meta: Archives (Updated) 0
Update: With the new theme, pages can now be accessed from the navigation bar just below the banner picture; they have been removed from the sidebar. This includes a page pointing to the Archives.
The Archive of all posts published here is now displayed in a “page” under the heading “Other Stuff” on the sidebar, over there on the right, reducing the length of the sidebar, courtesy of the Compact Archives plugin.

The Urban Bike Project 0
I got my Fuji Sports 10 from the Urban Bike Project, to which Second Son introduced me. (Just between you and me, I think he was interested in a young lady who volunteered there.)
Just about the best $75.00 I have ever spent.
They do good work with good hearts.
Lost (Updated–Kicked to the Top) 0
It seems that one of my favorite OTR sites, a site which, being Canadian and not fixated on old time radio shows from the USA, was distinguished by the variety of its offerings, myoldradio.com, has let its domain name expire.
One hopes it will redeem the domain within the grace period.
If it does not, the OTR community will have suffered a great loss.
Addendum, Two Weeks Later:
My Old Radio is back.
