        I ain’t got none of that bookface, tweeter or Lincoln stuff. Just wp and gmail. Honestly, with 325 subscribers and 2 or 3 dozen regular commenters I am really comfortable with what I have and the blog is growing 5-10 a month by world of mouth. Living cool is cool but eating frozen pizza frozen is not, believe me. Santa and I play dominoes all year and many Spanish people live here at the North Pole – Ice Cubans.
