This may be a suitable spot in my narrative to stop and ask whether you are an avid chipmunk connoisseur, not the eating kind but the observing and talking-to kind. If you like to eat chipmunks, you are hereby banned from the blog. Now leave. I'm waiting. . . Yes, I'm still waiting. You have no business here--none.
Now that that little bit of pleasantness is behind us, what I was trying to say was that if you have expertise in the world of chipmunks and would like to share that expertise--at no cost, of course--then by all means leave a comment. Don't write paragraph after paragraph. Long windedness is tedious and smacks of self-importance. If you are self-important, you are also hereby banned from this blog--and don't write a 5,000 word defense on self-importance.

And if you're a self-important chipmunk eater, you should never have stumbled upon this blog in the first place. Setting ground rules is necessary for proper blog behavior. Blogging, after all, shouldn't be for just anyone.
