Welcome to FR, don’t mind those who think you are a sock puppet etc.
Freepers are a suspicious lot, rightly so, and it is frowned upon by many here to “pimp” one’s own blog.
FWIW I don’t think that was your intent.
Many posters are inordinately fond of how long they’ve had a screen name here and are giving you the “new guy” treatment. I don’t care and am happy to read an interesting blog now and again and have bookmarked yours.

It’s a tough call. On the one hand he has shown excellent taste and chosen a great screen name, which should excuse neophytism. On the other hand he stole it from me before I even knew I wanted it, and I am not sure that is forgiveable.
