I can hardly believe it myself, but I swear on my childhood cat Panther's grave that last night, this beloved blog of mine that I've built for nigh on 18 years was suddenly and quite rudely un-alived by Google.
Yes, I was just casually looking through some posts, and out of the clear blue sky I was greeted with this:
