Culture shock open thread

Even though I've been talking about it in the comments, there are bound to be people who are surprised that the blog looks different. I really do hope this helps the people who have had difficulty getting this blog to load. There may still be a few things missing from the sidebar, but most of what was here before should still be here. Most of what's missing are ads and other potentially money-making features that may have been problematic as far as page load time.

Anway, as I mentioned in the previous thread, I've got a class tonight, so I need to take a little break from blog work. Hopefully there are no major problems with this format--I did have a number of people check it out last night, and it seems to at least be a little less buggy than the old template.

Oh, and we now have the "e-mail this post" icon back.

And, tell you what, to help you relax, here's some soothing imagery from a free desktop wallpaper site.
