Pulling The Plug? - Scratch That
I am a very decisive person and once I’ve thought through a decision I rarely reverse myself unless there’s a good reason. One of my favorite quotes is: “Decide quickly and change your mind slowly.” I think it was Benjamin Franklin who said that, but don’t hold me to it.
At the eleventh hour, I’ve decided to save this poor blog’s life and give it a chance to redeem itself. Like I said, I didn’t come to either decision lightly, but after reading all the comments on my death sentence post, I felt like I was quitting on the good people that read my blog.
With that said, here’s what you can expect going forward:
This blog will become my personal blog with no specific focus, except whatever I feel like writing about. I might write about totally random crap or nothing at all. Who knows. Only time will tell.
I hate the current theme, so it’s history. I’ll be changing the look of this blog at some point so don’t be surprised when it happens. No offense the the theme’s author, but the layout of the CSS stylesheet is horrendous and the post formatting really sucks.
I will be writing contest posts here and there because I want to win stuff. What better place than my personal blog?
I will shamelessly promote my side projects and affiliate marketing sites. I’m not going to bombard you with these types of posts every single time, but I’m going to use these posts to improve the search engine ranking for my other sites.
Thanks again for all your support. I’ll do my best to keep you entertained. ![]()
All I can say is Yahoo! Your thoughts and no non-sense attitude helps get me through some long days… So I say bring on the random thoughts… just like Jack Handy!
Thanks Stinger, I appreciate it.
LOL @ Jack Handy.
…and gosh darnit, people like me.
Yay! I’m glad that you’re keeping it around
It gives hope to all of us who have personal blogs. I was thinking of doing the same thing with mine. Just blogging whatever I want, whenever I want.
Yeah. It’s good to be yourself. Same with you, I will just crap and write anything that I feel want to write about. So I support your decision!
Thanks Roberta and Linda!
I wish I could think of some meaningless crap to post just to say I did it.
i like to see a diversified blog with random topics!
Right on, write on about whatever you feel.
I think your on the right track. My favorite blogs are all random thought blogs. I’ll be back to see your progress. Thanks.
Haza! Bring on the Randomness!
Glad to hear your staying around! I think it’s perfectly fine to be random on this blog. Sometimes randomness makes for the most entertaining sites.
Glad you’re back… and all us bloggers understand your pain… just blog about what you want and sell out to the man… we still love you
Thanks everyone!
DeMerchant: LOL! Trust me, I would totally sell out to the man if he were offering to pay me.
I did the same thing with my blog recently. I figured, “if i’m spending this much time doing it, why not make it something I love?” Best of luck, and I sure do hope you continue to keep us entertained.
I don’t get why you are changing this wordpress theme? It looks kind of ok to me.
I actually really enjoy reading your blog. Glad you’re sticking around! And I must say, I absolutely love the title of your blog (the quote about taking your blog outside is CLASSIC!).
I have a random blog as well, and its the blog that I enjoy the most!
More power to you, often a radical shift is what’s needed. Good luck.
This might be an older post but it’s a new one to me. Glad you are keeping with the blog.
Never change something thats working. I love this site.
I love this blog. Always random!
Great content and very helpful thank and keep up the good work.
