Old Blogger Post Imported

Hi all, well it only took me 6 years, but I have finally imported all of the blogger content from my old site (on blogger) to this new fancy-dancy website here.  You can see them in all their glory in the ‘imported from blogger‘ category. Also, in other behind the scenes news I also acquired the historypodcast.org domain. Yeah me! Now if only I could get the .com!  That is all.
