Hello again, faithful readers. As you can see, we’ve gone and done it again, mocked up some farce of a web site masquerading as a thing of purpose and meaning when the only goal remains to make fun of everything we can before it all disappears in a wisp of nuclear fusion.
We stepped back and took a look at how the site was being used (and abused) and it occurred to us that most of the crap that used to appear along the sides was just that — crap. Archives? Categories? Badges? What the hell for? All you want is the latest junk we’ve found or created, and that’ll appear here. Then you want to find that funny thing we did a while ago where we talked about lint and carpeting, so you may need to search for something, and that’s up top. Lastly, some of you actually don’t want to come here at all and just want the goods delivered, so you want the RSS feed link, which is also up top.
There. Done. Simple.
So we’ll keep on keeping on, heading into our — Oh Dear Lord — 10th year on the Web in 2006. We promise to try to keep up with the Joneses and get into all the newest, oldest toys like Audio and Video and interactive whatnot for you to play with. Meantime, thanks for dropping by and be sure to say Hello!
woo hoo! Glassdog is Back. It will be a merry christmas after all.

I see that you have soundly rejected the recent trend of using bland, tiny fonts. Kudos. :)

Shiny. Excpet for the slightly pixelated graphics. But it’s good to see you back.

Oi, lance Arthur. This is nobody from the digital-web-ocean. I used to read your tutorials since the very begining. I’m really glad glass dog is back. Thank you very much for everything you never knew.

OUTSTANDING!!!
10 years! not a month of that time has gone by that I didnt hit the dog, even during hiatus, just in case.
once again, you have done something with the common web page that no one else seems to be able to do, used some magic trick up your sleeve and made something shibbier than the next guy.
why do I suddenly have a craving to find a sushi/icecream karaoke bar?
Thanks Lance!
we missed you!
