Administrative Memorandum No. 1

After hiring a consultant to do a series of time/motion studies over the past week, we have determined that it would be beneficial to move the "Contributors" section of Earth Goat to the top of the blog. I like to check this section once or twice each day to see who has joined our ranks. The locational adjustment should result in the daily recapture of approximately four (4) seconds of productive time per workday for me. This will allow me to finish Mojave Moses (my novel) on March 9, 2006 at 4:08 p.m. instead of 4:11 p.m. Or I can masturbate longer next Friday.

I'm all ears when it comes to any suggestions or preferences like this. I'm a little stumped here, though, because on my screen, the Contributors section *is* at the top of the blog, in the right-hand column, and the Recent Posts is beneath it. I wonder where it is on your screen. Are you sure you're not still suffering from margarita poisoning? Alternatively, you could get up 4 seconds early every day.

Additionally, it would be great if everyone set up a profile, even a rudimentary one (though I understand any skittishness about that). Only through the process of elimination, for example, was I able to deduce Dunkey's identity.

It's at the top when viewing a particular message such as this one. It's at the bottom when I'm looking at the main screen, http://earthgoat.blogspot.com.

Well sir, still stumped. When I view earthgoat.blogspot.com, Contributors are at the top, and they stay there when I view other messages. When you say "at the bottom" you don't mean you have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the blog to see the contributors, do you?! If so, I'll try another template.

it's "dunkeys's" identity, bro.

Grendel said...

Oops -- sorry, Ethan!

Grendel said...

Dunkeys is not Ethan Canin. I kid -- because I love.

bR said...

Yep, I have to scroll my lazy ass all the way to the very bottom. But if you're not having to contend with said issue, then leave the blog as is. I checked my calendar, and I'm clear on 3/9/06 anyway.

Grendel said...

How about this? Different template by a different template maker person. Maybe their coding is better or more consistent? Are the Contributors up top?

bR said...

Nope, but don't worry about it. It must be my compoohter.

How about Masturbating Mojave Moses -- now that's a title.

Or Moses Mastubates Mojave.

Or Mojave's Masturbating Moses.

Or The Corrections.

Seriously -- punching the bishop sells.

At the risk of seeming naive and out of the loop, is Mojave Moses really the name of your novel? I actually think it rocks as a title.
