1. NewMexiKen learned a few things during my self-imposed hiatus. One of those is that I want to keep doing this. Another is that Johnny Carson had the right idea — if you’re in it for the long haul, take lots of time off.

2. NewMexiKen, like Emerson, believes that “A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.” I reserve the right to change my mind.

3. It’s time to upgrade the underlying blog software from MovableType to WordPress. Most of you won’t care, but while I fool around with the migration there may be some odd looks to the page(s) and possibly a few disruptions. Please bear with me.

4. Thanks primarily to Ken Jennings and Google (and to a lesser extent the other search engines), yesterday was by far the busiest day ever here — 1,494 visits. The previous best was 1,191.
