Old Posts, Revisited

I have now imported almost all of the music posts to the new music site. There are still a few stragglers here and there but for the most part, the bulk of the transition is complete. I have now made this site public again.

I removed my post about the new site because I want it to remain completely private and therefore I do not want any links from this site to it. I will write a vague post about the music trying to inform anyone who hasn’t been around these parts what has happened so look forward that.

As part of my work on this site, I will be going back into the bowels of it and making some very old private posts public once again. I did this a while back but for those of you who have forgotten or weren’t around back then here’s the scoop.

This blog was originally a diary of the year I spent in France. Then it became a pop culture site where I wrote movie reviews, talked about music and books, and any other thing that interested me. At some point, I turned everything except the music private. I have slowly been going through those old private posts, giving them a light edit, and then making them public again.

When I do so WordPress treats them like a new post and it sends out an e-mail to all my subscribers as if these posts were just written. That can be confusing as I wrote a lot of personal stuff back then and you may hear me talking about living in France or Indiana, or reference something that happened twenty years ago.

I’ll try to make note of when I originally published these posts to ease that confusion. Most of you will have no interest in these old posts but I don’t know how to turn it off so you don’t receive those e-mails. My apologies.
