Twice today I've posted pieces here and then had far better titles come to mind.
I wish to hell I'd thought of "Oedipus Wrecks" and "Traduttore, Traditore" before I hit "post."
I need to think a smidgen longer before I hit that button.

You know, some of us bloggers will change titles if we think of a better one. And if we're feeling particularly Responsible To Our Readers™, we'll even disclose that we changed the title because the one we originally thought of just plain sucked.
Not that yours sucked, I'm just sayin', is all.

I don't think anyone would understand those titles, Jay. Stick with what comes first.

Jay,
Did something happen over the weekend that has led to performance anxiety? I mean, Cindy was comforting and all, but women just don't understand, do they?... not that I've ever had that problem...
Heh.

Hey one drummer!!! :-) I understand more than you'll ever know. I always tell people to go with their instincts and these titles are wonderful. I would imagine (including me) that the other titles woud go over one's head and under their feet.
heh back. :-)
Cindy

OneDrummer, it's shocking to females, too...you know, you wonder what you did, didn't do, things like that.

Jay, I rewrite titles often ... not frequently, just time and again (figure out what I *really mean* because even I confused myself with writing that)...was just saying, sometimes I rewrire titles and just did earlier tonight and then I see the Permalinks still published with the original, replaced titles and then links later...it's enough to cause one performance anxiety at the keyboard, no doubt about that, but I still rewrite titles without pause, just because I can.

Sometimes I make these technical snafus just because I know it drives the technically insane dictators of the internet crazier than they already are.
