Wow! This is the perfect post for Neatorama, gail! Thanks!

Yeah, the server did eat the comment by Hannah (sorry!).

Carl, sorry for the server move business. Neatorama does run its own server, and moving it to a larger box simply means headache. Hopefully the new server is faster and worth the extra money.

And we thought swan boats were exclusively monogamous!

Years later Peter the Swan was found at a back-alley birdseed shop of ill repute, drinking himself to death on cheap millet liquor--for it seemed that the love of his life chose to paddle off with a heavily-patched rubber dinghy from the wrong side of the docks. She's now anchored at a half-submerged pier with seven screaming, undisciplined innertubes to feed and contemplating scuttling herself...

Hannah had a funny one, and I don't know where it went-- she said "All their children would be decoys." I can just picture that! (Maybe the server move ate her comment.)

What does this "server move" business entail? Does Neat-o-rama actually run its own server? Color me impressed. Are you just switching hosts? - eugh, that's a pain enough as it is. Either way I hope it goes smoothly for you!

And yes, those swans are cute.
