The Lobby



In the day when websites tried to imitate the real world you might see a home page labeled The Lobby. From there you could link to the Barbershop and get a trim or shoot the breeze. Suddenly an avatar from the Andy Griffith Show would pop in with a problem - a billygoat was chewing the hoses people used to water their lawns. Users of the website pick their own avatar from the Griffith show, or Coronet Blue and try to solve the problem.

I've wanted to set up an atrium for my blog. Maybe there could just ben a waiting room and we could have the best of Goofus and Gallant.

Goofus and Gallant were always scary to me as a child. They were in the Treasury of Great Children's Literature, the only book my strict Lutheran father allowed us to read as children. We were never allowed to read things like "Dr. Seuss," whom my father probably thought was a Communist. Anyway I do remember that Goofus slurped his soup and obviously Gallant didn't.
