Happy Birthday, Blog!

Yep. Nineteen years, I've been doing this. In case you're interested, this is the 27,180th post. Well, not exactly. A few have been deleted and a larger number have been rerun. I'll guess I'm well over 25,000 unique postings. I would like to acknowledge and thank a few friends who've helped me with the tech end of this thing…friends like Josh Jones and Glenn Hauman. I must also thank the many who, when I typo, are quick to let me know…folks like Steve Stoliar, Shelly Goldstein, Jerry W. and many others.

And I really should thank those of you who send tips via PayPal and/or use our Amazon links to buy things from Jeff Bezos. A few years ago, in order to minimize the "down time" of this blog, I moved it to an expensive hosting company that has indeed eliminated most of the technical outages. I lose money on it but I lose less because of our donors. Your support is very much appreciated. Maybe we can celebrate today by impeaching the president or something.
