So I realize that people might not actually know "what I mean" by not-quite-suction-cups. The transparent clear plastic that you see on suction cups is the material on the soles of one of my new flip-flops. It doesn't have actual suction cups, but the material's enough to ensure I don't slip (I haven't ever slipped, so I don't know why I'm worried, but they looked damned cool in the store).
That wasn't the real reason I put up this new post. I changed the name of my blog from "My Blog" to "blog (derivation: weB LOG)" but it wasn't sticking and I wanted to see if a new post would fix it. Checking ... NOW.
