There are times when I want to post something, but it's only one line.

I don't post these things because I don't like the idea of grabbing your attention for a post that's only a line long. Unless I'm going to be posting a whole lot more that day, it isn't worth it for you to go out of your way just to read that line.

OK - sometimes it is. If it's a really kick-ass line, then it's worth it. But, most of the time, the one-liners I want to write are basically just these "So-and-so had a cool post. Go look at it," things.

For some reason, I just don't feel right about using an entire post just for one little message like that.

To be able to fulfill my desire, then, to put out the "So-and-so had a cool post" type posts, and to also not bother you with one-liners, I've invented what I'm calling the "After Blog Mint."

It's going to be a small space at the bottom of my posts that will be used to deliver a little note. That way I can slip my little messages in without wasting anybody's time.

You can see the first After Blog Mint in this post.

If you want to steal this idea, by the way, then goferit. I don't even know if it's my invention. It's entirely possible that I stole it from somebody else.

If I did, then HA! I got away, sucka! And there's nothing you can do about it...
