All right. After some serious nagging from my sister Abby and my friend Leta, I've got the first of the "new blog features" up and running. The observant among you will have noticed that Mailbag has been added to the left-hand column. This is the new page I have set up that is dedicated solely to interesting e-mail I receive. I did this to encourage people to write and comment on the page or just life in general and to be a sort of message board for the people in my life or maybe even the nutjob I don't ever want to know.

....and so that My Back Pages can get back to being all about me!
