A Note on Advertising
I wanted to make a quick note concerning some of the ads we run and sponsors we accept both here and on The Weirding, in general. I have wanted to post this for some time now and kept putting it... ...

Technical - Please Help with Feed!
Is anyone having feed issues? PLEASE comment and let me know if you are. I don't know wtf is wrong with these feeds, aside from the fact that Google acquired Feedburner. Honestly, I never once had....
Wasted Time?
You know, I spent the majority of two days this week drafting long, deep articles on blogging, illegal immigration, and just things, in general. And didn't publish any of them. I actually spent... ...
Direction and Directives

A Few Odds and Ends
Yes, this is yet another of those generalized "agenda" posts, but I'm just checking-in. I have some more advance reviews this week, and I'm going to look at some titles already on the market -... Re...
Comic Book Day
Well, my shipment came in last Tuesday, but I was down and out, so I couldn't tell you what I'm reading this month. I haven't actually read any of them; they've been laying on the floor there where.....
Tech Daze
We had a pretty good spike in both traffic and subscribers yesterday and I see that several of them dropped-off this morning. I have a feeling it's because there was so much churn last night. Those....
Ah, America
How much does it suck that I have a blog dedicated to Americana and almost everyday, I am reminded of just how ashamed I am to be American? In this week alone, whores dominated the news, morning... ...
Quick Rundown
Here's a quick Rundown of a bunch of entertainment news that just wasn't complete enough to warrant individual posts. Remember, it only takes one serving of Rundown to equal 23409734290874 visits to....
New Digs
So? Whaddaya think? This is what I have been working on for so long. I realize there are some flaws and missteps here and there - now you see why I have been messing with the tags so much... Read ...
Real Quick
Hey guys, I know there have been a lot of technical posts lately and most of them have been said time and again, but you are about to see why. I have decided to go ahead and try the new template... ...
It's Time - Changes Underway
Well, the time is upon us. The Rundown, we're a-changing: The Rundown is moving to its own sub-domain off The Weirding and the template (design and layout) is changing. It is going to blend better.....

Yes, there have been a lot of technical notes lately, but I told you it would be like this. There are going to be a lot more throughout the month. First of all, the Chill pages will be up later... ...
Something to Tide You Over
So I am hard at work on the Chill stuff because I am determined to get whatever I can get of it done out tonight - one has to have goals - and I am running low on smokes, right? I take a quick... Re...
Today
Hey, you nerds! Okay, so I have like 23490724097934 million things going at once here and yesterday was a big day for us here (the past few days have been, actually - and thanks!), so I'm going to......
Today
I am Just getting up. I guess I have gotten my days and nights turned-around because of the times I couldn't sleep last week because I was up until nearly dawn. I could have slept longer (probably.....
New Template on the Way
I have not yet made up my mind as to the specific template I am going to use, but I am definitely changing The Rundown's appearance, layout, and design. We have simply outgrown this simple, yet... R...
Whew!
Just a quick note since it's on my mind and it's a perfect time to illustrate what I have been saying: I have worked with a template for like the past two hours. I am not sure that I am going to... ...
Tables and What-Not
A while back, I made a post that had several pictures which illustrated whatever point I was making (I don't remember the post or anything about it). I could not get Blogger to format it correctly......
New Exiles #1 - A Review
I was an X-kid. Overall, I was a Marvel Zombie - and I still am to an extent, but now it's more just because I know the characters and histories, where I don't know those from other companies... Rea...
Fiddlin' with the Feed
Hey guys, I went into FeedBurner and played with the feed a little to kind-of dress it up and so forth. I also changed it so that now it doesn't feed entire posts. I didn't realize I had it set to.....
Templates and Stuff
You may not have really noticed, but I moved some things around on the template and I think it looks a lot better, personally. I have actually been working on the presentation of all the blogs the......
Just in Case...
As you have probably noticed, I have been playing-around with the template lately. I am trying to find a decent contextual advertiser and also get things looking better. Google AdSense just doesn't ...
