Dear Little Bald Bastard,
  How will I know if you’ve answered my question?
- Darryl L. Pierce
Dear Darrrrryl,
  What a fortuitous and not at all planted question! If you want to see all of the questions and answers as they’re posted, you can add the Ask LBB feed to your favorite feed reader program. Then, you’ll get to see every update I make, until the day when my bitterness finally dissolves my fragile organs, and I die choking on my own bile. Enjoy!

  So I was doing some blog maintenance, adding tags to old entries. I didn’t realize it would republish huge swaths of my archives in one shot. Sorry to everyone whose feed readers/friends pages were overloaded with my drivel. I’ll go back to three posts a week now.

  For those of you reading Ask LBB on Livejournal or in a feed reader of some sort, I have no clue why Blogger suddenly decided to republish more than a dozen of my recent entries. Unlike the last time this happened, I wasn’t muddling about in the archives, or doing anything else that could have caused it. Blogger just seems to have had a Gary Busey moment. Sorry about that.

I’ve added some new functionality to Ask LBB. There’s a new RSS feed, as well as an email subscription service. Your inbox, it burns us!

  If you’re reading Ask LBB in a feed, today is a good day to wander off of your electronic front porch and take a gander at the stuff in another neighborhood. I’ve made some changes to littlebaldbastard.com, including a new banner and an updated list of links to interesting stuff.

  Because I’m nobody’s design professional, I’m just using a slightly tweaked Blogger theme. The banner is all me, though, and I think it turned out pretty well. I hope you’ll stop by and check it out.

Sometime this evening, I’ll be installing the newest WordPress build, version 2.6. I’m nobody’s IT professional, so expect the site to be down for a bit, and some kinks to work out once everything is in place.

I managed to update my WordPress install, with far less mucking about than I anticipated. Sometimes, things go better than expected. Praise astronauts.

Please join me in welcoming a new author to the Suburban Panic! bomb shelter. Scooter Grant is a friend, law school colleague and veteran blogger. Nobody knows exactly what sinister plans are percolating in her brain*, but we’re excited to have her participating in this project.

*my money is on “army of atomic monkeys.”

The Suburban Panic! hostel for the slightly deranged is happy to welcome another long-term guest. Waldorf Van Buren is an old friend and sometime artistic collaborator, as well as a contributor to a previous iteration of this website. He also has a paralyzing fear of llamas, which I can’t stop myself from bringing up every time I have to describe him to a third party.

Please join the staff of the Suburban Panic! Society For Precision Grammar Sciences as we welcome Camilla Carter to the faculty. Camilla is an old college friend, and a contributor to an earlier, less salubrious version of the site. Her hobbies are shut up, that’s what her hobbies are. Welcome back, Camilla.
