As you may have noticed ...
That thing I said last week about how we'd have different features here on different days--I changed my mind on that. Blogs are a work in progress! (Some more than others.) I've decided to keep all content that isn't specifically related to the Miss Conduct column on my Robin Abrahams blog. What we'll do here is chat, and talk about specific questions, which I'll post on Monday and Thursday. I'll post my roundups of your advice on the following week.
And you know, about me throwing questions up there like that--I'm not just doing that for the page hits. Obviously, that's important. But I really do learn from your perspectives, and your stories. I try to pick good questions to put up here: either questions that leave me stumped, or where I don't have a lot of expertise, or versions of questions (like this Thursday's) that I get all the time, and that leave me wondering if there are angles I haven't looked at. So thank you for your insights!
(And if you're hankering for the old fashioned philosophizing and oddness that used to characterize this blog, you know where to find it!)
