Some Bitching And Some Thank You

I guess I shouldn't bitch about the changes in BLOGGER when they have only had them up for a day or so but bitching is in my nature so it's unavoidable. I can't add anyone to my blog roll or add anymore awards to my voluminous collection because the new DESIGN feature doesn't allow you to really design anything. I hope they fix the problem soon but for now I am frustrated. Why does NOTHING work the way it is suppose to anymore? Why change something when how you had things was functioning fine?

So instead of posting this fine award by my amigo TS Hendrick, I will post it here for now and encourage you all to visit his very funny and unique site. He is one of those people whose sentences I can't finish in my head and you all know how much that means to me. However, I suspect 'TS' is a pseudonym because all the checks I sign that way come back to me uncashed. What the hell?


He has a fine list of other sites you should be visiting if you enjoy thoughtful, funny posts by some of the most interesting people out there. I actually feel sorry for those of you who don't know what you are missing. I am always impressed with the way that people express their thoughts and feelings about the pressing and non-pressing issues of our day.

Many of my favorite bloggers have either given up their posting for the summer or in some cases, for good. I admire the real lives they have that don't allow them to commit as much time to the hobby as some of us lonely troll-like shut-ins can, but at the same time I miss their unique voices. No one can ever take their place but I keep searching for those who can stand proudly with them.

So get you act together BLOGGER before I start thinking you are a subsidiary of BP.
