A good cure to a creepy doll is a good old post that is still useful. In this post, I’m going back over some of the posts that came out in this week in previous years. Having looked over these from time to time, I’m always surprised to find old posts that cover current topics that I had planned to write. If they’re still useful to me, maybe they’ll be useful to you as well.
