Didja notice that we now have a “1″ in the Techno(rati) blog counter?  I still cannot figure out then why Technorati is still valuing our blog as totally worthless (don’t even go there!).  Perhaps I’m just being impatient and it takes 24 hours to update the values… Or they update them once a week.  I’m excited to see what our offical worth is calculated to be.  Of course, at this time that value is nowhere in line with the asking price.

Act soon as I am seriously contemplating doubling my current asking price.  Who knows, it could occur in the next 24 hours.  Or perhaps at the beginning of next week.  But, why risk it.  Act before midnight tonight and you can get not one, but two instances of this blog.  Double traffic = double ad revenues.  If that doesn’t sound like a retirement plan to you, well, I have something else for you.

You may be thinking right about now that I have too much time on my hands.  Well, I can assure you that as soon as the rains let up, I will be heading out the door (all the more reason to place your bids NOW).  I have a long list of things to pick up from Costco.  No telling when I’ll be back (I heard that!).

It’s been a pleasure, and I thank you for all the comments.

• Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head... But that doesn't stop me at all.  Like the postal service, I can take a licking and keep on ticking.  That's probably a juxtaposition of metaphors (I hope I'm not dangling any for that would be too obviously Freudian). Just to take a step back and reconsider the reason that......
• One More Day 24 little hours. 1440 long minutes. An eternity in seconds. School bus pulling up to the curb.  Priceless. I picked a bad time to get sick.  Not that it will keep me from my annual celebration (it's a relatively new ritual), but I fear one of the boys will catch......
• On Saturday Scott Will Become a Fountain Pen That's what my Uncle Willie said the Bar Mitzvah would become... because the traditional gift was a fountain pen. BTW, he gave me the most beautiful sterling silver Parker fountain pen. I never quite realized its worth until I lost it many years later. Though I could never replace it......
• As the day lingers on... ... and my thoughts turn to blogging. Why you may ask? Because one day as I posted before someone is going to want to pay for my wisdom (right?). What wisdom you say? Stick around and you'll find out. So, what has this fine day brought so far? A policy......
• Do Money and Happiness Go Hand-in-Hand? How many times have you said to yourself: If I only had a few extra thousand dollars a year, all my problems would be solved? The truth is that money usually has very little to do with your personal level of happiness. In and of itself, money possesses no......

• Learning the Acoustic Guitar When learning how to properly play the acoustic guitar, versatility is a major goal that you should work towards as best as you can. It is very important to learn all of the different ways you can play the various chords. By learning the different chords that you can play......
• Why I developed the Life Direction Clarifier Here's why I developed the workshops: Age 15 I thought... "When I grow up, I'm going to be a Business Man... No wait, a Lawyer... no a racing car driver! - Yeh!" I went through quite a few occupational fantasies when younger, and I'm sure you can relate to......
• Seven Myths About Search Engines Demystified Today there is a lot of information available on the web about how to get good search engine rankings, some information is good and some information is bad. Over the few years search engines have been around, some myths have developed. Some of these myths are actually just out dated......
• Patience is a Virtue Reinforced in Tough Times These last few weeks have been a trying time for my family.  My mother remains hospitalized in intensive care following four surgeries in five weeks.  We have had several visits from Murphy over the summer that strained our emergency fund.   The wild market swings have added a bit of......
• Maybe Asking Santa for a White Christmas was a Bad Idea What a snow storm! Three days plus 90 minutes without electricity, 3 days without tap water (after power was restored), and 6 days without cable TV & Internet service. Not to mention pulling two people out of a ditch, shoveling 2 rather long driveways by hand, and the personal......
