Well, friends, after 14 months and nearly 200 entries, I’ve decided to slow things down here at The Springfield Historical Society. Unfortunately, my temporal resources have been spread too thin in recent months, and, in a too-little-too-late effort to keep myself sane, I will therefore be winding the site down. Mostly.
What this means is that the three posts/week schedule I have maintained so rigorously will get a significant downgrade. We’re still going to see a full block of entries this week, but, after that, the update schedule will devolve to “whenever I feel like it” … probably somewhere between one post/week and one post/every other week.
One thing is certain: We will continue to see new posts, just without a definite schedule. To keep abreast of these unregimented updates, I recommend following @mcgarnagle_shs on Twitter, or using the RSS thingie.
And, as mentioned, we are still going full-bore this week. Monday’s post will be up in a few hours, after you’ve all recuperated from this bombshell. It’s about Ed McMahon. Grazie.
Thank you for your superb work. Seeing Simpsons screenshots and lines of dialogue are funny, but we can get those anywhere. You provide excellent addenda and contextual notation. We look forward to future posts, whenever you can cram ‘em in.
I remember you from such NBA teams as the LA Clippers and Locker Room Towel Fight the Blinding of Larry Driscoll
I am dead inside.
I can’t get enough SHS, yet I could see something like this happening, and I respect your decision. Keep up the great work.
this is what i get for not hailing to the chimp
He’s gone mad with power like that Albert Schweitzer guy.
(please explain this before you hiatus)
You maniacs! You blew it up!
I’d always been impressed by the wide range of tidbits and references you’ve explained with great frequency. Glad to hear you won’t be completely ending the blog! Thank you and keep watching the skis.

Thank you for everything. Now let’s give it up for Table Five!
Thank you for all your hard work so far. SHS is as enjoyable as flying from New York’s Idyllwild Airport to the Belgian Congo in seventeen minutes!
