For the past few weeks, my daughter has been watching Looney Tunes cartoons quite a bit…and I must admit that I've plopped down on the couch and joined her a few times.

Hi kids, it's Evan again. I hope you all enjoyed my little APRIL FOOLS joke this morning. This website is not dead. I promise you. This morning while I was in the shower I hatched what I believed was a brilliant plan to fake the demise of my blog.
