The Droll Roll

As a new year dawns, Lugubrious Drollery is adding a new feature--the Droll Roll. This widget can be found at the top of the sidebar to the right. It is a place where people who find their lives aren't embarassing enough already have an opportunity to further humiliate themselves by acknowledging publicly that they read this blog. According to the description of the feature supplied by Blogger,

Many readers ignore sidebar items so by writing a post about your followers widget and moving the widget to the top of your sidebar, you will inevitably grow your audience.

Ah yes, that is my goal--to grow my audience, much as Sarah Palin progresses her great state of Alaska (see LD's previous post Sarah Palin Progresses Her Political Ambition at the Expense of the English Language).

So step right up, ladies and gentlemen and children of all ages. Click on "Follow With Google Friend Connect." No, no--not here. Up there. To the right. Under the heading "Droll Roll: Irregular Readers." We few, we happy few readers of Lugubrious Drollery welcome you with open arms. Please plant yourself in the Droll Roll, so that I may grow you. There is abundant fertilizer here (see LD's previous post Franklin Pierce and the Golden Age of Guano).
