Nb: I am cross-posting this article to both my own site and Pension Plan Puppets; I spent a lot of time working on this, and it occurred to me that if Jammies or Sexypants accidentally pushed the wrong “deletify” button over there at PPP, I might lose the whole thing. So here ’tis: Here’s the […] A New Day Dawning in Leafland? Sleep was deep, my breakfast was good, and the pot of tea hit the spot.
