New characters, and blog updates

At the suggestion of a member of the cast of characters, there have been some slight updates to the list. See, you have to think of this blog as an interactive experience. I'm all about pleasing the readers. And by readers, I mean myself. Since I'm probably the primary reader of the blog. But, on the outside chance that there is actually life on Mars that is reading my blog (fn1), I want to please the outsiders too. So suggestions will likely be incorporated, to the extent that they are reasonable. fn2.

Besides, I have funny friends, so if they make funny suggestions, I will be more than happy to steal those ideas to make my blog funnier.

Other updates:

• I added an RSS feed. See the link at the right.
• I added statistics collection from StatCounter.
• I updated my profile link so that on the front page, it no longer links to Blogger.com's terrible profile feature.
• I added a link to the "Characters" post on the right sidebar.

Outstanding issue: On archived pages (individual post display), the right sidebar is screwed up. I haven't yet figured out how to control the template for that.
