Huh. There’s no way to see past asides other than to know its full url, is there?

Yeah, I was just realizing that yesterday. Trying to come up with a solution.
I was always taught to criticise like Paul :- wrap it in a praise sandwich: Praise – Criticism/Concern – Praise/Affirmation.
If only I remembered this often enough.

Yeah, see. There was this aside in either early July or late June that linked to a site that had all these critiques about study questions about movies and whatnot (i.e., books and music). The link was actually to a specific article but I don’t remember what. I’m not even sure who posted the link (maybe Alan or Bill?). The site interested me because this guy I met from RUF had just recommended it and I wanted to take a look to see what it was all about.

Ooh, I found it thanks to Google Cache: Ransomed Fellowship. Now to see if its any good!
It’s strange… the Previous/Next navigation works if you’re in /category/asides/ (which isn’t a category on your side nav), but not if you’re in /asides/ (though /asides/ will give you the first page of the Asides index).

The Dane, sorry for the delay. As a quick fix I added the “asides” category to the sidebar. Not ideal but it works.
Awesome. You rock.
