You saw through professor Savage like the Dorothy and Great and Terrible Oz. But I'm not afraid of you. My graduation certificate is safe from your meddling. I hesitate to use the word "diploma," seeing as how mine was printed on the back of a Ginko Coffee House gift certificate. But, oh, the things that certificate has gotten me. (Mostly coffee.) Fine.

Maybe I'll write a diary about my pre-post-modern hermeneutical critique of former student blogisphere commentary and the poetics of retroactive grade deflation. Maybe then I could win back some of the more discerning readers like yourself. Yeah, that's just what I need in my life right now.

Sorry, Bryan. You can't just be gone for a year and expect your readers not to have found new, better archaeology blogs. Me? I'm totally into Professor Savage's Neopaleoarchaeo Electrodiary now. (If you aren't sure what those words are, that's okay—professor Savage is really up with what us kids are into these days, but it's impossible for *everyone* to live on the cutting edge.) Prof Savage is sort of like Indiana Jones, if Indiana Jones owned a motorcycle and wrote books of clever essays. I'd give you the web address... but I'm not sure you'd fit in. But still, keep at "Old Dirt," and maybe someday you'll win back some readers. Your pal, John Yawn.
