So, we're back. At least for now.
For those of you in the viewing audience who have been wondering what Blogger has been doing to my template, it's been stripping the attributes out of many of my tags, thereby rendering javascripts, hyperlinks, and image tags useless. When I pasted a "good" copy of the code back into the template, only some of the changes "stuck" (hence the return of blogrolls and archives), while many of the tags were stripped out again. Useful. Not.
Meanwhile, have been tending to offline life, as The Hovel requires some serious excavation work. Online, will be working on procuring a domain name and server space for an eventual move from the present Blogspot digs. And making the switch to Movable Type, with all the configuration hilarity that it entails.
Some linkage for you while I get my house(s) in order:
