Note for Haloscan Users:
Over the past month or so Haloscan started (the end of July) handling of trackbacks has improved though it is still pretty broken for carnival type posts. Now, instead of rejecting every attempt to ping it accepts single pings for a while and then will start rejecting them. I will keep trying to track back to Haloscan boarders but can make no guarantees for any particular week.
Note for Typepad Users:
Typepad continues to behave similar to Haloscan for trackbacks. I been able to get trackbacks to most, if not all, Typepad based boarders. I have to do it one at a time and wait a while in between pings but Typepad does not go into semi-permanent rejection mode like Haloscan.

Heat advisory in effect
There’s more than one way to cool a cat, as Baby demonstrates on this typical summerish afternoon in Chelsea-by-the-Sea. Here he self-aerates by placing himself on one of our wrought iron, expanded-mesh chairs out on the terrace. A haiku from
