I think I’m going to launch this site today. If it weren’t for the fact that I’m two steps from the funny farm continually challenged by Blogger’s temper-tantrums, I would have more patience, work out the bugs and provide you with a neatly packaged new blog.
Oh yeah, I just remembered.
I’m not patient.
Welcome to my new home – www.2passthetorch.com. I hope you’ll help me figure out what I’m doing in WordPress.
Thanks to Leanne for helping me take the plunge;)

That’s a good way to look at it, “….continually challenged” with Blogger’s Temper-tantrums, Love it. I’m working on moving to WordPress too, maybe sooner than I planned too. Your new place looks nice. You’ll enjoy WordPress.

After a morning with MAJOR BLOGGER ISSUES, I’m ready to jump ship, too. Almost (lol). Happy housewarming….make that blogwarming??.
I voted for Pass the Torch at ML’s blog emmy’s–you were ROBBED
. Thank you so much for your nomination of PENSIEVE. Get this, THAT’S the point of my post yesterday. When I leave here, I’ll be writing the follow-up. Sometimes I begin my bloggin’ with writing, sometimes with reading (today it was the latter). Trying to post comments on Blogger has taken waaaaaaaayyyyyyy longer than it should have due to technical difficulties.

Hi Pamela! Thanks for stopping by! Yeah, I wasn’t sure what to do with the pic and I didn’t have enough patience to wait for options.
I guess he’s so long and lanky that this wonky pic makes him look more normal;)

I’m back tonight … and the picture looks different?
Did you fix it, or were mye eyes out of focus before?

Ha! Glad you noticed, Pamela! My web designer played with the banner a bit and fixed it. Neat, huh?

I don’t know if you’re aware of this, so here’s me offering you a possibility.

Well, that didn’t work.
Here’s what I said, in a nutshell.
Blog the program, available at http://www.farook.org/Blog.htm can grab your existing blog entries from your blogspot account, and you can then post them here so you have all your entries in one place. It’s installed to your computer (and a very small program, too), keeps a database of the entries on your computer, and you can publish entries going forward to your WordPress install as well. Then you have instant backup.
Your new site is looking good.
