Gallery2 integration works, mostly. Well the sidebar and full page embedding works, more to come. Activate WPG2 by pointing it to http://stjschool.org/gallery2/ and it should autodetect the rest. Then place the STJ Galley widget in your sidebar. Subscribe2 allows you to email, automagically, site updates(a new post for example) to your subscribers. A new Subscribe link appears in your footer.

Find a "copyright-free" etext online at, say, Project Gutenberg or here or here Start a new blog. Parse your etext into manageable chunks and insert into your blog. Add graphics and organizers. Edit theme.

What a funny word, "bloggiest". Should I say it is a "most bloggy" start to the year? Does correct English matter in a blog? All students I teach have begun a blog, of sorts.

NO DECAPITATING the teacher tricks. You may not saw a kid in half. I've got a dvd that is just awesome. Co-op has a few tricks in their birthday party stuff. Find a "magician's oath" from google/wikipedia. Take it seriously. We need a table and a fancy-shmancy cloth. Someone find a trick were you have a hand puppet as your assistant. Let's put on a good show.
