New & Improved

NO DOUBT YOU have been wondering what we have been up to. In truth, I had been beset with a grievous illness of the gravest nature. Bedridden, I scratched and scrawled and made calculations for the expansion of this little corner of the web, which I then had Hogarth (seen above, bringing me some hot toddy in my poor condition) send on to the architect. I have now recovered and my scratchings and calculations have born fruit. The result, you see before you: a new, improved, rather wider andrewcusack.com. Many elements have been made a bit cleaner than previously, while one or two things here and there became a bit clumsier in the construction process. I am sure you will pardon the niggling infelicitous remnants when you chance upon them. At any rate, the general result is an expanded central column, in which we can exhibit to you even broader and bigger images to enlighten you, brighten your day, or raise your ire, whichever the case may be.

(P.S.: I very rarely give advance notice of things to come, but you can of course expect a proper appreciation of the late Rt. Hon. Ian Douglas Smith in the coming days, now that the scaffolding is down and our new edifice complete, as well as at least one more entry in my ‘Maces of America‘ series, and so on and so forth…)

Nice work. Wider is better. Now, any chance you can add me to your blogroll? ;-) Cheers!

Oh, and glad to hear you’re feeling better, finally. That was one bad cold! I just recovered, myself.

Excellent. I was beginning to think you rather remiss over Smith’s eulogistic absence from these pages.

I see you have mastered the storybook technique of enlarging the first letter. I tried doing same some time ago, but couldn’t make it work.

I know I don’t have to forewarn you about the PC police, who will pounce on anything positive said about Smith. Our very own “Kipling” made what I thought to be quite an honourable obituary, and yet we were still accused of “tacitly supporting racial segregation”. Very frustrating to put it mildly.

I mean it when I say I believe this to be one of the very top blogs across the entire sphere. Using talent and virtue as my primary benchmarks, I don’t think I have seen anything anywhere else that quite tops it. So hats off!

Fraternal regards,
The Monarchist

I must echo the sentiments expressed by gentleman monarchist above – I am not an avid follower of blogs, yet this is a very regular destination in my ventures online and quite possibly the most consistently high-quality read that I’ve come across.

Hats off indeed.

Belated get-well-soons. Sorry to hear you were knocked out of it by illness. Very glad to have you back in time for this most important of seasons of fasting, prayer and feasts.
