  I think my last comment went bye-bye into cyberspace somewhere.
  I like it Wry.It's kind of Zippy-The-Pinhead-ish.Spiders with beard-wigs and creeps yelling at the spider plants were prolly actual(I'm pretty sure)events in a very past life of mine.
  Came right in though the window pane.

  I liketh it. And it is a Blogger template. So I would get my comment preview...:oD Howevurrr... I will need to read the link over again, as I am not interfacing with the surrealism in the way I would like, on brief aquaintance. (One subscribes, of course, to the maxim that quirkiness generally equates with an overall thumbs-up.) Yeah....that is way too convoluted for a maxim. But there are mitigating circumstances.
  
  Nevertheless (and tangents aside)...I think I would miss all the wee hidden compartments and secret-drawery feel of the template as it stands. All the intricate layers of interesting stuff in a wee old typerwritery font. Sort of elegantly cluttered, but orderly at the same time. (Sorry - I am writing this under the influence of powerful migraine meds. But it was quite a nice paradox, nonetheless.)
  
  Mayhap you could try the minimalist template out! I do like the Bodleian bookshelves feel of what you have now, so am not putting my oar in, or anything.
  
  I think I likes the green banner better with the yellow text, but maybe that is jist a Celtic thingie. : )

     Sorry aboot the migraine meds... mine were prophylactic, and therefore not so mind-bending, back in the days when I was a publik skool teacher.
     
     Dear Rowan: it's not the layout (although I like the Blogger look better than the stuff my website gives me to use), it's the *content.*
     
     :o/
     
     The content cracks me up, as if someone spent 2 years of their life honing a website to make it feel as though an alien were trying to act human by blogging. I have always had an odd affection for the surreal (Magritte, Escher, Dali) and don't know why, but that website is definitely in that category.
     
     Maybe I'll just let an Eggagog-type author do a weekly or monthly post here, instead of letting all the posts de-volve into mild insanity.
     
     If they are not already there.
     
     Laxsalt: the repetitive references to THE CREEPS cracks me up... and is, itself, creepy.

  Hullo!I knew it was the content, but as I was not 'gettin it', the form was all I had to hang on to. Which is kind of pitiful.
  
  Thanks for the head's up! That is indeed a very fine blog concept. I guess I would have cottoned-on, if I had read more than that one post. At least - I hope I would. One's sense of the bizarre is the one thing which I would hope would weather-well and improve with age, like some mossy old stone wall.
