After another thirteen thousand comments appeared on this weblog in the last two weeks, I’ve yanked the comments again. Now they’ve found Ken’s weblog too, and things are getting out of hand. Here’s the trouble: I have my archives almost ready to make the switch, but I need a good solid couple of hours to remake the templates and figure out how in the hell to make the switch for everything over to the new system. I have an idea as to how I want to do it, but it’s still a little iffy.
What’s truly at issue here is that I have many, many other things to do that are of a way higher priority than this, and time is slipping away like I wouldn’t believe. How in the world did it get to be December already?
I have a couple of longer posts brewing, which will go into detail over where I’ve been for the last couple of weeks and what’s going on with some of my serious new enterprises, but I think I’m going to hold off on those until I make the switch to MT3. Stay tuned.
