one last note on Blogster
First of all, I do not own Blogster anymore. Stop emailing me and posting complaints to me. I have nothing to do with it.
I understand blogging and Blogster can be somewhat emotional and personal to people but to me it was a business and nothing more.
For those of you who have asked me to get back into the blogging business. No. For two reasons, 1 is that I have a non-compete (regardless of the way the new owners have acted towards me, I prefer to act in a responsible business manner), and 2, the only day I ever made money blogging was on the day I sold Blogster. If I wanted to be in the blogging business, I would not have sold Blogster.com.
Oh no, they kicked so and so off Blogster ... please, who cares. While I am not entirely convinced of the current owners success, I can tell you that if the people they kicked off got all their friends together and they all left Blogster at once ... it would not be a blip in the traffic levels of Blogster. Sorry to disappoint you all ... if you do not like the way they are running thing ... move on but do not think you are going to "bring down" Blogster. Only Tony and Ed can do that.
Censorship ... again, it is their damn site. You want to curse, go somewhere else. As I told Ms Alabama today ... I would have kicked your ass off too ... It is THEIR site ... not yours.
I found out last night at dinner (after 40 years) that my mother always makes herself chicken on Thanksgiving but since I sit at the other end of the table from her I never noticed (its a big table). Last night I noticed and for the first time on Thanksgiving I didn't force myself to eat Turkey.
For some reason I have always wanted to get into the restaurant business ... I am currently looking at buying an existing restaurant - Cheeburger Cheeburger. It is a good start, a franchise, simple menu, small ... and while a significant sum, not a crazy number. I know I know ... tough business. Really, do you think any business is easy? If it was you would all be running a business.
So that is my thought for Black Friday. Hope everyone enjoyed Thanksgiving. My family is in from our of town and out of the country so I am a little tired by now.
Blog on ...
FYI ... my non-competes come up in less than 10 months

You're so full of it, you love me, you never woulda kicked me off. Umm, well you MIGHT have. But not for good ;) LOL
BESIDES, you never would have done the stupendously dumb things they have that caused me to yell at them so much AND you're apparently a lot more thick skinned than they are.
And you've never been stupid enough to talk about getting an erection during your medical treatments while online. Go walleyeman. Gawd.
yep
You must have violated the rules over there CB!!! They just don't pick people to boot because they don't like them!!! I will update my Death by Blogster list on my blog. I had your cause of "death as under investigation".
I think some people may have actually been complimenting you on the way you ran the site instead of bitching, though I didn't see what was said.
Hey Chief,
Nice to see your voice again. It's been a while. Hmmmm, the restaurant business. I know, you know. More hectic than most. I managed a bakery with 40 employes pretty time consuming. After all your talking about not starting back into the Biz of blogging you throw in there that your non-compete clause is up in 10 mos. What's up with that? Does that mean it's still in the back of your mind? Maybe? P.S. You wouldn't kick anybody off, you might give 'em EXTRA time in time-out but that's about it. You talk big but I think your just a puppy when you boil it all down. Yeah a puppy with a Hummer.
