Weekend Update (Friday Edition):
The Sysop Is In

j0306.jpg

The synergy between The Daily Blague and Portico fascinates me, I like to think, as much as it would if the sites belonged to someone else. So it’s a good thing that I don’t buy everything that I like! Still, there’s a deep satisfaction in watching the various parts click together — when they do.

The Week at Portico:  From now on, leads to new pages at Portico will appear in a roundup on Friday. This week’s Book Review review, for example. A book that I’ve written up myself: The Elegance of the Hedgehog. Last Friday’s movie, Entre les murs. And, finally, for the first time: Paul Taylor Dance Company. I’ve gathered these notices into one convenient entry so that you won’t have to bookmark them for weekend reading.

Housekeeping Note:    Oops! I don’t know when I did it, but I managed to fold the Images folder at Portico‘s server into another folder — and I have no idea how to undo the mistake. That’s why most images at Portico won’t show.

That’s “most” as in “older pages.” Recently, I’ve created Images subfolders for each of the site’s branches, and that is how I am going to “fix” this problem — by updating the site to conform with current standards and practices. “I was going to do it anyway.”

    I liked a lot your very thoughtful and intelligent critic of “Entre les murs”, it made me think a lot, thank you for Portico, too.

    I have just ordered The Elegance of the Hedgehog on the basis of your excellent review. You make me want to read books I would never find on my own,
    gratefully, your biggest fan on the west coast, GS
