Housecleaning

As you can tell, the management of The Diner decided to do some post-holiday/new year remodeling. Feel free to comment on any and all changes as nothing's irreversable and it's oh-so-easy to change.

The management would like to invite all of you who hang out here to give us your blog link and we'll be happy to put you on our links. We've found that a lot of Diner readers want to get to know the commenters, and what better way than to pop on and give us your url to link to?

Also, some of you will notice we have a "blogger probation" penalty box (consider it a 2-minute minor) that if you haven't blogged in a while but we value your patronage, all you have to do is make a contribution to the blog ring by updating your blog, letting us know, and we'll be happy to put you under our "frequent patron" listing.

And, now that the holidays are over...let's get back to regular blogging/commenting schedules shall we?
