licentious radio

I still call Radio a Content Disposal System, because there's essentially no way to navigate to old content -- unless you happen to remember the date it was published.

But Google has improved their indexing of my website. This is a step ahead. Now they seem to point at the day page, when the day is no longer on the main page. Before, people would click on the link at Google and arrive at the main page -- but the item they wanted to read was no longer there. Now Google seems to be pretty good about sending people to the actual content.

Thanks, Google. Keep up the good work!

Oops! Number two on google for "palestine humor" -- and I got no palestine humor. Sorry, gang.

Why did the Palestinian cross the road? To blow up the Israeli. Why did the Israeli cross the road? To assassinate the Palestinian, and destroy his relative's houses.

I'm sorry, I'm too hung up on dead bodies to think of anything funny. Very sorry.

Big news! Somebody used the calendar navigation today. Today is August 5. They clicked on 08/03, 08/02, and 07/31. All three of those pages were on the main page, so they only saw what they had already seen by scrolling down the main page.

Maybe they were bookmarking the day pages? Somehow I don't think so. In other words, the calendar navigation was worse than nothing. I have never yet seen a daily page in the referrer log that wasn't on the main page. I promise that I watch closely.
