I have never been happy with a single instance of the archive function on a WordPress blog before — after spending hours trying to get the archive to work the way I wanted it to, I decided to hire a professional. I got in contact with [Pat Dryburgh](http://patdryburgh.com/) and asked him if he would take a stab at it.
It is now done, and all I can say is wow.
All you get is the Articles and Quotes (no linked list posts) and you get them in a readable and easy to digest way. Click on the month and a fancy bit of javascript magic happens that shows you all the articles from that month. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do — don’t be shy about [hiring](http://patdryburgh.com/contact/) Pat to help you!
