Danger: Upgrade Ahead

MT_Warning.jpg

I'll be upgrading my blogging software and site templates this weekend. If past experience is any guide, you shouldn't be be surprised if things go kerblooey for a while...or longer.

See you on the other side.

Piratz of the Beltwayibbean

Bali_Simpson.jpgI'm off to the Washington D.C. area for a week. While there, I plan to get together with some of my Tiki Central drinkin' buddies at Piratz Tavern (warning: painfully slow Flash site), a theme restaurant in Silver Spring, Maryland. No, I won't be wearing an eyepatch and saying "Yarrr!" while I'm there, but apparently the waitstaff will. I tend to view theme restaurants the same way I view Ren Faires...with a mixture of bemusement and annoyance...but I'll try to keep an open mind.

In other news, since I started posting at PCL, I've noticed a rather precipitous drop-off in site traffic at the Goof, a trend I find a bit worrisome considering how much time and effort it's taken me to build up my readership, and since I haven't stopped posting here, I find it kind of puzzling as well. Hopefully, it's a temporary phenomenon.

Avast, ye landlubber scum, I'm weighin' anchor!
