And are you done getting your venom out or should I expect you to spew some at me again? Need not worry DharmaGrl... there's a difference between a "teen angst" mood and a "guy angst" mood. The teen variety tends to target anything and anyone for any reason. The guy variety targets people they're all

Well, normally I'd let this one go, but I'm not in a very good mood, and besides it was a personal insult. (Oh yeah, and KarmaGirl always ticks me off anyway...) So here I go with my "response" (aka retort). The first dozen or so quotes are from KarmaGrl: "People don't always comment on things that they read. Don't confuse comments with interest. You would be amazed at how many people are interested in business tools. A fast $1,000 print

"a quick scan counted about 15 in the last 5-6 pages of feature articles...." Just a couple additions: 1) Before the recent upset, most of my articles were (and are beginning to be again) personal experiences either told in such a way as to be interesting or at least relate to other people, or told as a foundation for a concept that I then presented. There are some blogs that would have very little meaning on the feature page, like a

I'd be happy to sleep on the couch if you want my room. I don't really know what to say, I don't have any words of wisdom or anything, I just wanted to say I'm reading, and I care. ~Buddha

We'll add that on to the list of potential JU products. Unfortunately, Dharmagrl, I don't think he'll be a newcomer by next year. ~Buddha

Hey man, I know just what you're going through; I remember thinking the exact same things. Just be yourself and don't change for the sake of popularity. The way you gain a long-term readership and the respect of the senior bloggers (senior blogger... hmm... maybe I can get a name tag with that on it...) is to be consistent in thought and action. Blog on, bud. Your time will come. ~Buddha

May I suggest a song? Look up "the Great Disappointment" by AFI. The lyrics... gorgeous. Here they are: I can remember, a place I used to go. Chrysanthemums of white They seemed so beautiful. I can remember, I searched for the amaranth. I'd shut my eyes, to see. Oh how I smiled then, so near the cherished ones. I knew they would appear, saw not a single one. Oh how I smiled then, waiting so patiently. I'

"Maybe it's ok for me to. You've upset MadPoet. I think you should apologize in a formal blog?" If you'll read my farewell (and whatever else) article, my last comment should make it clear that it was a misunderstanding on his part. I don't apologize when I'm not at fault. ~Buddha

"Anthony R., knowing that your remarks were hurtful, intentionally or not, don't you think that an apology is in order? No one would think less of you for offering one and I for one would think more of you. " Anthony is not one to apologise. OGSan, as Larry said so eloquently, the majority of users enjoy your writing. I urge you to take the message in your own article and ignore Anthony from now on. ~Buddha
