Given the fascination of some here on Xanga with Neopets, I thought I would forward this along. The Washington Post's Style Invitational contest this week was to submit entries that would be rejected by the Neopets.com filter (e.g. " My horse is injured, but I'm going to win the race anyway," Steven insisted. "I'm just going to do it with a pony."). Here's the link:

ginfiend better watch out: Killer mutant staph on the rise

In addition to talking about killer staph, the article notes that "Staph is also highly promiscuous, able to quickly exchange genes with other strains and even other species of bacteria." I'm not sure why I'm posting this second bit

Good thing I didn't take any of those useless English or literature classes in college; they might have wrecked my grammar divinity:

You are a GRAMMAR GOD!

If your mission in life is not already to
preserve the English tongue, it should be.
Congratulations and thank you!

How grammatically sound are you?

I wrote yet another Xanga tool. This one converts your entries from Xanga to Movable Type so that Christine could move her account over. I know that alejanndra used to be on Xanga and is now on MovableType, so if someone wants to let her know that she can bring her entries over, please do, as I know she doesn't read this.

Here's a tool I'm writing for people who are on Xanga/LiveJournal, but would like a MovableType blog better. It replicates the subscriptions feature of Xanga, but also lets you include LiveJournal and MovableType blogs as well. It's not quite finished yet, but it's making pretty quick progress. If you're interested, let me know, though I actually can't think of anyone who's subscribing to my Xanga blog that would be interested.
