Lion around waiting


I do not like waiting for things. I do not like waiting in line. I do not like waiting for Web pages to load. Most of all, I do not like waiting for blogger.com to get their shit together and figure out how to keep their systems up and running.

Blogger IS having a hard time. I couldn't get to you yesterday at all, and other blogspots that I did to would not load comment pages. Blogger is evil.

But that lion photo is pretty darn cool. Nice job.

Thanks, Kristy, Blogger is a two-edged sword. It's free and most of the time simple. But it is unreliable. Come to think of it, it is like many of my relatives.

I would simple return to posting my blog as a Web page using Dreamweaver, but I would lose the comments function and the astronomical odds that someone will find my blog using the "next blog" feature.

And I thought it was me. Anyway, I would like to point out that aside from the ads, I can't think of many other things in this world that come absolutely free for the use of anyone, and an occasional technical difficulty is not to big a price to pay for something you didn't pay for to begin with. Had they charged us all $19.95 a year for this priviledge, THEN we'd have a reason to complain. Pray that Blogger doesn't follow the lead of MSN chat, who turned free chat into a subscription service "to protect us from spam" and it gets worse all the time.
