Need a little something to snuggle up to at night?
TTLB has you covered! For a limited time only (I am planning on living forever, but eventually the Universe ends…) TTLB readers can purchase their very own Truth Laid Bear Teddy Bear!
The TTLB-TB comes in two editions: the Premium Bear for $15.99 , and the Basic Bear for $12.99. The actual bears are identical: the only difference is the price (the Premium kicks back a few bucks to little old me, the Basic edition is at the rock-bottom price provided by CafePress).
It makes a great gift for that special sweetheart — show them your sensitive and cuddly, yet morally serious and intellectually challenging side! Or get one for the munchkin — it’s never too early to start indoctrinating the youngsters!
Accept no imitations! Act now and be the first on your block to have a genuine TTLB-TB, before they’re all gone!
PS – I also note that CafePress now allows the creation of “thong” and “panty” products. While I have not added these to my store as yet, we aim to please our readership ’round these parts, so please, if there is a pent-up demand for TTLB lingerie — this bear wants to know!
Update: Never let it be said that I don’t respond to consumer demand! By request of the fair Erica, TTLB undies are now available at both the premium and basic stores.
Hmmm. I see this as the next big thing in mindless blogging competitiveness. Sure, Pejman and Stephen might get more hits than I do, but I’ll bet I can get more of the lovely ladies of blogdom to wear TTLB-branded bloomers! (I almost said “to wear my panties”, but caught myself in time…)
Update Again: Hmm (II). It seems Allen Prather is upping the ante….

Reminder: is not a normal war between two nations. It’s a hostage rescue.
So don’t be surprised that the hostages aren’t dancing in the streets yet — the bad guys still have guns pointed at their heads, and will, until we thoroughly take down their boss and his core cronies.

Just had a report from a fellow running who indicates that TTLB doesn’t render correctly using that browser. It’s Unix-only, so I’m not able to test it directly myself. But it would be odd — I use Mozilla myself (Galeon is built on the same rendering engine) and don’t see problems.
Anyway, if you’re using Galeon, I’d appreciate feedback if you’re seeing odd stuff or whether all appears well. Screenshots would be doubly-nice if you want to be a real help. Thanks….

Update: The problem actually does appear in Mozilla as well. The issue appears when viewing TTLB in a non-maximized window, so there’s not enough room to show the whole width of the page in the browser. In IE, you can scroll left-and-right and see the whole page. But in Mozilla, you can’t scroll all the way left — the far-left of the page gets cut off.
Hmmm. I’ve no clue. Anybody with suggestions, chime in!
