There's no problem in including a free plug for the blogging service I use. After all, I adopted blogger.com as a platform soon after it was purchased by Google. My first, brief entry was on a fateful Labour Day in 2003. From that time forward, I've posted something or other every single day. Believe me, that's a lot of entries.

I also remember moving to the newer templates and even, quite recently, turning on the mobile version.
So, I can never repay Google for the free service they've provided. Nor can I forget the nearly literal blood, sweat, and tears that have gone into creating a habit so ingrained. Let me offer heart-felt thanks to the Google empire. May you adapt and continue for many more years ...
