HAHA! I have a good voice for TV and Radio!

What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The Midland

“You have a Midland accent” is just another way of saying “you don’t have an accent.” You probably are from the Midland (Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, southern Indiana, southern Illinois, and Missouri) but then for all we know you could be from Florida or Charleston or one of those big southern cities like Atlanta or Dallas. You have a good voice for TV and radio.

Change in the comments section

I made a small configuration change that might make comments easier to use. If you sign up for TypeKey and login with your TypeKey account, Blogrilla will automatically post your comments right away without the need for me to approve or disapprove it.

If I could totally unlock it and open comments wide, I would. But get SO MUCH spam through the comments that I haven’t been able to. I’ve tried implementing some kind of CAPTCHA captcha.gif method for authentication, but I haven’t gotten to work yet.

That’s still my preferred method. Truthfully, I don’t really care about anyone’s identitiy - I don’t feel a need to match a face with a post, but I really just need to limit the spam. If I could find a way to keep the spam out but have everyone post anonymously (except maybe Nigella), I would.

So feel free and encouraged to post more comments without feeling like I’m editing you. I never do anyway, but comment to your heart’s content.

The Thursday Report

I don’t think I’ve written anything about the court-case lately, and as it turns out I haven’t been writing a separate court-blog, so I don’t think I’ll publish anything special afterwards. Maybe just a summary of what the case was about and what was important to the jury when we decided.

I’ve been riding my bike over there every day and its been working out moderately well, except that its been raining virtually every day for a week. So I get a little wet – but I would have gotten wet walking, too, right?

There’s a little pizza/sub shop on the way that I’ve been eating lunch at. Its pretty cheap and its got some tables and chairs so I can sit down and read a couple of chapters in my book, which has been nice. Normally, I don’t get much of a chance to read but lately I’ve had more opportunities and I like it.

Friday night is the daddy/daughter girl scout dance. I don’t know where or when, but I know that I’m going. On Saturday I’m going camping with Ben. The temperature is supposed to get down to 38 degrees that night, so I think it will be chilly. I have a new sleeping back and a liner that liz got me, so I think I’ll be all set. Likewise I will put a smaller kiddie-style sleeping bag inside a larger one for the Boo-Man.

He will be fine. He’s very excited about it.

On Sunday I am taking Liz to the Antiquarian Book Fair in downtown Boston. She LOVES old books and I think she’s all jazzed about going, which is good.

The last couple of nights I have been making a concerted effort to take a longer walk with the dogs. Last night I walked about a mile and a half at a brisk pace. Sometimes without warning I would turn on my heel and walk the opposite direction which made sure that Peterman and his short friend, Buckaroo were paying attention. I won’t say they did great, but they’re doing better. I also insist that they heel while we walk. Peterman keeps his head near my knee and he’s getting better at not sniffing all the walls and shrubs we pass. Buckaroo… well, he stays behind Peterman, which isn’t all bad either. And he’s very good at not getting distracted. He has the shortest legs and has to trot to keep up with Peterman and me. I don’t think he has any time to get distracted.
