“LOST” by George Ella Lyon

.          I’m online searching for the grave of my mother’s baby brother Jack, who died before his second birthday. Around 1926, I think. Probably of diphtheria. I believe they lived in Manchester, so I google the local cemetery and am offered the chance to write a review. A review! Of the cemetery! Too quiet for my taste? Bothersome neighbors? Not suitable for horseback riding? Then, unable to descreeen myself, I google Resthaven, where the rest of the family rests, only to discover Resthaven has a Facebook page. Lord help us. What kind of status gets posted there? Are the wrens in the catalpas below my parents’ plot on Twitter? Are folks buried with their smart phones, hoping for one last text? Even at the edge of the grave I make my song. That’s from the BCP. Google it.

    My coder is trying to convince me to move to .net from
    PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
    But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on numerous websites for about a year
    and am nervous about switching to another platform.
    I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net.
    Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
