Same as the old blog? Pretty much, other than those snappy blinqing eyes, courtesy of design maven and karaoke monster Kevin Burkett.

But here's the question. Can you name them?

First person to correctly identify all of the celebs in my header gets a free CD from the Blinq treasure chest.

I'll be posting some of Blinq favorites on the new blog. Otherwise, if there's something you really need to go back and read, I'll put a link to the old blog somewhere prominent. 

In an ideal world we would have been able to save the comments and keep them on the new blog, since on the Obama post, for instance, 99 people shared their thoughts, and that made for reading as interesting as the initial post. This isn't an ideal world, pally.
