Maggie's Farm

We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Putting links in our comments

I confused some folks by posting our Tips to Commenters on the blog yesterday instead of at the top of our Categories over on the left, where it belongs. My bad.

However, due to popular demand, we can now tell you how to put linkable links in our comments. You have to type in the command, thus:

[url]www.domain.com[/url]

Give it a try, if and when you feel like it. I did it without the bolds, and it didn't work.

BD: I didn't hear back from Chris yesterday so perhaps he was busy or off sailing. When I do, we'll get the more-common tips placed below the comment box for ease of reference.
