Need Your Help With The Last Step
Hi! Here it is! The new newsletter running on Ghost š
Favor: To keep the spam rulers happy, please do one or -ideally - all of these steps:
ā¢ Add gardenfork@ghost.io to your mail app contact list
ā¢ Hit the reply button and send me a quick hello ( or say nothing if you want )
ā¢ Click and drag this email into your Important or Main or Primary tab in your mail app. Or use the pull down menu in the email header to move it.
Why am I asking? Long story short, doing all 3 steps tells the spam algorithms that my emails to you are not spam.
Top photo is Spike at the dog beach in Prospect Park. Spike is not a ball retriever, but she is a ball rescuer. There is a fence about 25' out in the water to keep the dogs from chasing the geese and ducks. Along this fence are usually a few balls that dogs have not retrieved. One day Spike just swam out and brought one back, then she went out and brought another, and repeat. So we always have ample ball inventory, and often leave the balls on the bench for other dogs.
New Newsletter: What I thought would take one day has taken mbe 6 weeks? I made several mistakes moving the gardenfork domain name to Cloudflare, and then setting up the DNS records to point to Ghost. These records basically tell your web browser and email server where to go to get the website and email. These DNS records have their own language - one which I clearly don't understand.
I was about to hire someone to fix the mess I had created when I thought to share with the GF supporters on Patreon the issues I was having. Minutes later, two of my patrons, Matt and Jesse, emailed me with the solution. So cool. I talk more about this on this week's GardenFor Radio.
Bunch of new vids, have you seen them yet? Very Fun, IMO...
Do you have Netflix?
I just watched the most whack documentary - The Kings Of Tupelo - about a real life sarin attack on a U.S. President that starts with an Elvis impersonator. (See?) It is in 3 hour long episodes, you might end up binge watching it. Its on Netflix. I don't like to watch show trailers, as they usually ruin the show for me, but if you do here is the vid:
The vid below might not be for everyone, but this is the kind of thing that I just go, "Wow that is amazing" 3 guys hack reel to reel tape recorders to make music and a video. Hat tip to Laurie Anderson for being one of the artists doing similar back in the day.
Still getting used to the new Ghost interface to write the newsletter. It is a very clean and simple one, compared to MailerLite. I'll be in your Primary Mailbox - because you did all 3 steps above, right? In a few days. :)
