hey, friends!

today we welcome a new blogger from back in the 'hood. Yes, Justin Bog is coming aboard. As Justin is a prolific writer, and, with his partner CK1, a constant traveler, this should ramp up the blogs.

In some ways, this site has been a failure, if only that it anticipated a need that just isn't there. People don't seem to want to keep in touch in this way. In the days of instant messaging, e-mails and cel phones, there seems to be no need for this added layer. Not going to sound like a sophomore girl here, saying "hey, guys, where's your school (blog) spirit? Come on! Join in!" Nah, not going to go all rah rah on ya. BUT, if Moneka, Paul, Justin S. and Chris L. want to join in ... would love to have your thoughts. For example, Moneka's e-mail on the Michigan language page was a great thing to blog about. And would love to hear more from Greg and again from Alan. Oh, and what ever happened to Mr. Boyer?

Maybe I just like the sound of myself writing and that's why I like this idea.
