		<description>I wouldn&#039;t say your attempts at being funny rated a FAIL. I was just giving you grief in return.

In seriousness, where would you have me put the biblio? Even if (when!) I figure out how to do a three-column WP theme, it&#039;d be too busy and distracted, it seems to me, to list &lt;i&gt;all&lt;/i&gt; the damn books on the front page. Although I could try to list at least the ones that are currently available through Ammie.

Suggestions are solicited, please.

As for &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Firefly&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, actually, I promised &lt;i&gt;not&lt;/i&gt; to liveblog it and bore everybody. That&#039;s probably a mistake, I admit, since it sure does seem to generate comments. Have you checked out the open thread on my &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://victormilan.com/forum/index.php?topic=324.0&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Forum&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;? 

It also seems to generate comments from the same core group of readers. Nothing wrong with that, obviously; I&#039;m grateful and pleased to &lt;em&gt;have&lt;/em&gt; a core. My biggest priority - after writing more and more, of course - in coming months is &lt;em&gt;attracting eyes&lt;/em&gt;. Not just people I already know (again, thanks to you all for participating; please keep it up!)

In terms of &quot;all that free time [I]’ve found,&quot; (yes, I know your tongue was firmly in your cheek) first of all, I need to free up even more by wasting less time online - and while I don&#039;t consider blogging, Twitter, or the Forum as wastes, as mentioned, I need to find a useful equilibrium with them. And the idea is in part, indeed, to have more free time to do things which actually give me pleasure, as opposed to making me unhappy and in no state to create. 

The greatest part though is to &lt;em&gt;create&lt;/em&gt; more. And to promote and get paid for it properly.</description>

		<description>I know, I should be abed.  Yes, I&#039;m trying to be funny - FAIL.  You&#039;re succeeding, though.

The biblio is good, yes, but front-and-center would be better.  You&#039;re burying your impulse buys (well, all your buys, really) at the back of the store.  Or maybe your burying the lede.  Or something.  But I&#039;m not worried, you&#039;re headed the right direction and I can wait, no rush...

Weren&#039;t you going to start liveblogging your impressions from _Firefly_?  You know, with all that free time you&#039;ve found...

		<description>How would I know if you&#039;re using it wrong? I thought it might be the helicopter thing, but when I looked up the whole construction on Urban Dictionary, I didn&#039;t find anything.

So, okay, now I get it, it&#039;s funny.
&lt;em&gt;
&quot;Im in ur hed, rulin ur thotz...&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

Glad you found my mental subjugation by an eight pound dog funny. Oh, hell, it was &lt;em&gt;supposed&lt;/em&gt; to be.

Was over at John and Gail&#039;s house tonight watching movies with them, Patricia Rogers and Scott Denning, and Steve &quot;S.M.&quot; Stirling and his wife Jan. Skippy gave me a break from mind control this time.

As for a chance to order all my books, have you tried my &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.victormilan.com/biblio.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Bibliography&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;? Granted the &quot;click to buy&quot; links are a work in progress, especially since when I was doing it the Amazon Associates product link search wouldn&#039;t find some of the books that regular search turned up, a problem Amazon has since allegedly repaired.

So what the hell are you doing up at this hour, anyway?</description>

		<description>OMGROTFLCOPTER? WTFO?

As far as I can ascertain OMGROTFLCOPTER is a Twitter user (we should probably, in honestly refer to them - well, &lt;em&gt;ourselves&lt;/em&gt; - as &lt;em&gt;Tweekers&lt;/em&gt;.) Were you referring to him? Or is COPTER an acronym for something too advanced for my puny human brain?

Thanks for the goad on finishing &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;DinoLords&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Maybe a little early; it&#039;s appreciated.

And yes, I&#039;ll finish &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Firefly&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Need to have something to discuss in the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://victormilan.com/forum/index.php?topic=324.0&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Forum&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; as time permits.

So what do you think of the changes to the blog page, O Mighty Go-To Geek Guy?</description>
