  1. Thanks for posting these links, Jared. I’d forgotten about a lot of these, and it’s been good to go back and re-read a lot of them.

  2. Thanks, Chris. I agree, I can see there were times when I must have been living under a rock or something, because I missed some of them. We’ve had great posts and great guest posters.

  4. Chris H,

    In all honesty, I put the first one of these up because it had been days since anyone had posted and I wanted to do something “easy”. Well, then I remembered about the Niblets, so I decided to continue and make it easy on everyone 🙂
