Comments on: on the singular blog… http://blog.dowski.com/2004/11/20/on-the-singular-blog/ Unfortunately, Christian had a Thwart, and the Magpie stayed in play.

I would have liked to call it the "Mental Ice Cream Shop", or better yet, "The Mental Ice Cream Shoppe" for that old timey effect that is "so in" these days. You could even decide for yourself where in the sentence to place the emphasis - I would prefer the Wayne's World interpretation myself. Regarding indexing/archiving - all of this stuff is stored in a MySQL database. When I moved from my old hosting provider to my own server, I simply took a database dump and imported it into my new MySQL server. For those of you on Blogger, I am not sure what your options are if you decide to move elsewhere. It sure would suck to lose all that. I'd like to look back on all this blogged stuff someday and see that it was good. It would stink to lose it all... It’s too bad I already renamed my blog.

I've been thinking about trying to retrieve all that I've tossed into blogger, but I don't know if all of the stuff I was writing way back when is even on their servers anymore. Twould be nice to save it all and show future generations. You know, to prove to them that any idiot can make into adulthood eventually. Also, how are you going about indexing and archiving it all?

Why? Because my brain wants ice-cream, that's why. I like to think of it as a kind of mental ice-cream stand on the internet. Why? Because my brain wants ice-cream, that’s why.
