Today a good friend said that I was a Horton-the-elephant type, as the character appeared in the original egg book. Is that a compliment, or is he saying I'm a naïve, anachronistic tool?

I haven't read the book (candidate for the reading group?), so I can't comment. Is Horton the type to blog only once a quarter? If so, then I see the resemblence ...
Although you apparently have nothing on your "good friend" (and don't we all know what *that* means), with whose brother I work and who should get said friend/brother a job writing for us, as he's far more engaging than most of our crew ...
Given the author, I'd bet the former.
Hold that bet; Mayzie was penned by the same hand.
LW, I would say that if Horton were to be a committed blogger, he'd follow through. As it happens, though, he commits to incubating bird eggs and carrying around dust-mote-sized planets.
Horton was committed to what he had agreed to do despite what his "friends" thought of him. He also looked out for the little guy when no one else would -- to teh poitn of endangering his own life. He was certainly true to himself and his own beliefs regardless of how he got in the situation in the first place. I'd take it as a compliment.

Pohl, you can take the test test online.
I'm the Cat in the Hat.
Turns out Mr. Piersol was right. Veronica's internet test constitutes iron-clad, scientific proof.
I added the results to my sidebar.
Matt Piersol?
