Welcome, Brigitte

I celebrate the fact that on this May the First I can welcome as a new follower no less a person that Brigitte, my life's companion. To be sure, doing all the dirty work of giving her a blogger profile fell to me, but then that's only normal when it comes to computers and such. She wanted to comment on Patioboat and couldn't, and thus we now have, in this community, one of most avid readers of blogs ever. She was doing that back when I couldn't even spell the word and, indeed, professed a certain contempt for the activity. It's not difficult for me to find occasions for penitence. But never mind that. Welcome, Brigitte! May your comments proliferate throughout the blogosphere...!
