It's been 1 week and 2 days and it is truly amazing how people have pulled together. At my Publix (supermarket), there is a sign saying they are collecting monetary donations and they have already send 20 loaded trailers of food over there. Twenty. And that was posted by day 7. The outpouring is amazing. The Treasure Coast food bank was out collecting via many radio stations on Friday. All our radio stations are doing something and ALL OF US are donating one way or another.

Russian intelligence or a peeping Tom?
Okay, I'm spooked. I stopped by to see what the
Commissar's guest blogger had in store for us today; initially I loved what I saw. I was even laughing out load as I scrolled down to see how the US Postal Service had rendered homage to some of my favorite bloggers, through their first ever series of blogging stamps. I was able to guess who 70% of the stamps honored. Glen Reynolds and Simon's stamps were incredible likenesses of them so they were easy.
All was fine, until I scrolled down to see the stamp I was honored with.

More Blogging Etiquette Do's & Don'ts
While the Commisar's away at a re-education camp, a
Capitalist Pig has assumed control of our beloved Commisar's site. While visiting, he gives a few useful etiquette tips for guest bloggers. Which means I'll never be able to be a guest blogger on Harvey's site.
Harvey, himself is on a one man crusade to help save newbie bloggers from cluttering the blogosphere with bad form, content and style. He recently posted some really outstanding suggestions in his guide called 12 STEPS TO BETTER BLOGGING.
I would like to add a few do's and don'ts of my own, which I learned the hard way, during my first few years of online journaling [before it was called blogging]. Included in my list are some of the biggest mistakes I or others made [and paid for in the long run].

ItÂ’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood!
Well, here it is, my new home. [looking around apprehensively] I'm both nervous and excited about being here.
IÂ’m nervous, because I haven't gone over to my neighbors yet to introduce myself. I mean the reason why I moved here is because itÂ’s a better neighborhood, although sometimes my adopted blog dadÂ’s anticÂ’s worry me and make me wonder what kind of neighborhood IÂ’m moving into.

Congratulations. I kept checking the old site to see if you got the help you needed and, may I say, The New Place Is Great. So much more roomy!!
You've got some great neighbors and they are lucky to have YOU in the neighborhood!!
The one thing I noticed when I moved off blogspot was how much more dedicated I am now. Before it was like a game, now I actually schedule time for blogging. (I know, I'm just weird)
Anyway - this is great. I'll update the blogroll now!!!

Welcome to the Munuvanian Neighborhood! I'm pretty new here myself, but I've found everyone very welcoming. I'll be back to read more soon.

Link updated.
Yeah, the link behind that nice fancy graphic no one ever notices... :sniff:
LOL
Unfortunately, like all .mu.nu, my comment info doesn't get remembered unless I use the permalink. Just as good, I hate pop-up boxes....

_Jon - yes, I used my toe. And no need to pity my wife. Just remember: average man + tiny wife = above average man.

Hey, how's it going? I brought some wine for us cultured types, some beer for the slobs, and some yogies for the rats.

Honey, I'm Home!
Well, after several months of doing battle with Carpel Tunnel, and after a week of trying to tame the dragon that is Moveable Type, I finally surrendered after wrecking this site. I asked for help and I received it in spades.

Ms Michele:
How about adding a touch more color here. Maybe color the post title like the green hover. Plus I need to do a bit od tweaking for the margins/padding on the right side of the main column. Let me know if that's OK and I'll knock it out real fast tomorrow sometime.
