1000

This is our 1000th post.

There's a Nazi joke in there someplace.

Anyway, we started this blog in April of 2015 hoping to fill the dead time in the afternoon. We intended to talk a lot about being a college professor.

Now we mostly blog in the morning and we haven't set foot in a classroom since a month after we started the blog.

Over time we've generally settled on a format. Monday Metal, Tuesday Tally, Friday Updates, etc, etc. We settled on the Royal 'we' for our voice because we hate 'I' and love The Big Lebowski.

And of course there's Ed, our imaginary working-class Limey editor.

[Keep me out of this, mate-Ed]

Actually, Ed is all too real.

[So was Harvey-Ed]

The real Ed says she stops by this blog every week or so because she likes watching me talk to myself.

In recent months we've drastically picked up the blogging pace, partly to increase traffic and partly because we like to get a few things under our belt early in the morning while the Stroocklettes are getting their Honey-nut Cheerios with milk and watching Paw Patrol. We've also found we enjoy blogging much more than we did say two years ago.

Rarely have we regretted anything written here. In a few circumstances we've gone back and changed a word or a title.

We've only ever agonized about a few posts, those dealing with the final meltdown at Raritan Valley Community College. For now the final story stays under wraps. That said literary revenge is a good thing. Readers will see that one day.

As noted, this is our 1000th post.

Here's the first.
