The current schedule is this: If I should miraculously get a bout of free time, I will write.
***
A few tips for readers:
- You can use the “categories” function in the sidebar to view all the posts on a given topic. When I write a series (such as the living wage series), I give it its own category, so you can quickly see all the posts on that subtopic.
- For those who prefer such things, here is a link to the RSS feed for this blog.
- Type to small? If you are using Mozilla Firefox (which you can download for free), the ‘ctrl +’ feature works fairly well for increasing type size. I have not had the same luck with Internet Explorer. So if you like big print, Firefox is worth a try.
- The first time you post a comment from a given IP address, your comment may be held for moderation. So don’t panic if it takes a little while to get approved. Re-post if you think your comment ended up getting spam-boxed by mistake, and put a little note in your comment telling me what you think happened.

Below are the types of topics that used to rotate through the the old schedule, to give new readers an idea of to expect on this blog. Not when to expect, just what:
Economics and Social Issues: An article or explanation on a topic related to economics and economic-type social issues. Also fair game are business topics, accounting topics, and world politics. Anything that vaguely falls under the ‘economics’ category.
History: Something interesting I’ve come across in my study of history. Right now I’m focused on medieval Europe, though I reserve the right to branch out at any time.
Book recommendations. This can include children’s and adult books, fiction and non-fiction. If I haven’t read the entire book, I will tell you that; I will also caution you if I have any reservations about the book, but still think it is worth considering.
–> Books will tie to the subjects covered in our blog, though I will include literature and history from times and places outside of what I am currently blogging about. I think that we get a deeper understanding of history when we can draw from a wider breadth of human experience.
–>If you are an adult who doesn’t know any children, consider looking at the children’s titles for yourself. Often children’s literature will help you to see a dimension to history or economics that you hadn’t quite grasped yet.
Social Issues, and other random topics of my choice. Could be anything at all. Back when I started this blog, this was my ‘education topics’ day. Trying to get better differentiation between this blog and my homeschooling blog, so most teach-y stuff is maybe moving over there. I guess these would be the non-economics social issues. As if anything could ever be separated from economics.
Site Maintenance. Of particular interest to you, the reader: Let me know of any links that are relevant to this blog, I will post them and blog about them. Also, I am happy to add reader webpages to my blogroll, even if they are not directly related to the topics here. A links do need to me the minimum requirements of decency and all that. (Cranky is okay. Non-catholic is okay.)
