As you well know, the last week in April is National Karaoke Week. What, you didn't know that? Well, to celebrate this auspicious occasion, I have brought back a vintage post from last summer. As someone who has been told on numerous occasions of her complete lack of vocal talent, please take this opportunity to enjoy a wonderful karaoke song, not performed out loud by me.

Have you ever found something really cool on the Internet, but then you were never able to find it again? Well, if you are reading this blog, you've found something really cool. DON'T let it get away! So, how can you prevent this sad dilemma? You can subscribe! Subscribing to the blog is easy, it's free and it benefits both the blogger and the reader. It's beneficial for you to get updates automatically when a new blog entry is posted, thus making you happier, smarter and perhaps better looking*. It's beneficial for me because it gives me a nice reader base to show off to my superiors. See? Win-win. You can subscribe by entering your email in the box on the right hand side of the blog. It's right over there, shift your eyes to the right, scroll up...Yep, right there. You will receive an emailed link to confirm your subscription. OPEN THE EMAIL. READ THE DIRECTIONS. FOLLOW SAID DIRECTIONS. (I'm not yelling, I'm gently, yet firmly stating a directive.) This is the part that most people fail and then wonder why they never get email updates. Once you have confirmed the subscription, like a magical fairy bearing emergency info and updates, you will receive an email with any entries for that day. If that isn't enough to make you want to be a subscriber, maybe this little ditty set to the tune of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive," will seal the deal:

I WILL SUBSCRIBE

First I was afraid,
I was petrified.
Thinking I could never remember to check the blog
without a guide.


But I spent so many nights
Wondering how I could be so wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned I didn't even have to log on

No, no not I
I'll just subscribe
As long as I know how to type
I know I'll stay online


I've got to know which roads are closed
I've got to know the latest tips
I will subscribe
I will subscribe

Hey HEY!
