Note for Haloscan Users: Haloscan started (the end of July) rejecting trackbacks if they were submitted "too rapidly" by the same host. I don't know what the timer is but it is long enough so that it was very difficult to ping everyone that is using Haloscan for trackbacks. I'm sure that they are doing this to try to hold back the tide of trackback spam but it makes the service pretty useless for carnival type posts. Perhaps you can contact them and urge some different solution. Update: Typepad appears to be doing the same thing. Everytime I update the Ark it appears the timers are reset and the long list of MT autogenerated pings fail. Yecchhhh....

Abby enjoys a meeting with Santa.
Posted by Debra at January 13, 2006 3:05 AMWe experience summer rain, and Sasha, more so that Taffy, is affected by the weather. Perhaps humidity is the factor I am ignoring.

"Some Pig", "Terrific", "Radiant", "Humble".
I guess "Radiant" is most appropriate in this case.

Posted by Sunidesus at January 15, 2006 1:13 PMThe link to the current Carnival of Cats has the visible text "Niobum" but the link is for last weeks Carnival at pages turned. (I was wondering why so many people were visiting last week's funfest.)
