Blog roll failure

noreply@blogger.com (Spyder) — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 03:02:00 +0000

As you may have figured out I've been up to other things & blogging has taken a back burner. The blogroll thingy isn't working. I just removed a bunch that were 1 year inactive & I can't save or add any new blogs. I'm sorry I think I'm going to scrap the whole blog. I'm not active enough blogging & I'm just not interested enough to try to find a new blogroll thingy & deal with transferring all the active blogs to it.

If you are curious to what I have been doing: I've created a group on FB for Great Dane owners. It's called Dane Yard ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/190601924310411/) It's worldwide, at the moment I have just under 600 members.

Also, we have a new family member, Lily Luv. She has a health issue and we will be dealing with that thru here: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Lily-Luv/245987962147547

God bless & blog on!

Dear Radioman KC,

In the beginning. If you are Catholic you know that this is code for long. In the beginning I was introduced to blogging by a good friend ( Gone Mild ). From his blog I found XO & Greg Beck. After months of commenting on those blogs anonymously I decided that it was only fair to them that I create an identity (anonymous one) so that they would know it was the same person. Since I had the identity created I might as well start my own blog where I could rant & write about what ever I wanted. That's what your own blog is for. It's for you. I don't care to be like Tony or anyone else. As I don't go to Fox Fake News I don't go either to Tony's. He can put what ever he wants on his blog. Good for him. I don't make any money from this & don't plan to. I don't want to be a news person. I blog what & when I want.

I created this blog to store a list of blogs in the Kansas City area. Which as far as I know there wasn't one back then. As people asked me I've included their blog here. If anyone knows of any send them to me to include. I will include everybody. Unless they piss me off. It's only happened once so far. I'm pretty easy going, really.

I had no intention of opening this up for anything more than the list & announce gatherings, Happy Hours, whatever. I would be willing to post an introduction to a blog. If bloggers emailed me something describing them & their blog I would be willing to post that. But you can "piss and moan. Coin ideas. Lament, Stroke and diss each other." on your own blogs. If you are "working less on my blog as on my website" you don't have time to post on mine.

Regarding the monthly meetings. Did you ever come to one? I will confess that I have become lax in scheduling them/announcing them enough in advance. One of the problems is they were so big that it was hard to find a good place. So we moved it around trying to be fair to bloggers all over the KC area. Changing days because some could come on this day but not that one. I will tell you it's like herding cats. Mind you I do love these cats! And that is the thing, many of us have become good friends. I would even say the kind that will be life long friends. Many of us see each other at other times than a monthly meeting. We have each others phone numbers, addresses, keys & codes to their houses. I'm grateful for these friendships.

I work a full time job, I'm on two boards, and do weekly volunteering. I have two FB accounts, one Twitter account, multiple emails. I'm married (+25 years), own a home with 4 acres & a cat & 2 LARGE dogs. I'm 54 years old. I'm tired. So if I don't schedule a Happy Hour please forgive me but Life happens. And cooking? Well, I've done all the cooking I need, now I'm simmering.

So please, anyone how would like me to post an intro to you & your blog email it to me at MySpyderWeb@sbcglobal.net. Great idea Radioman!

Sincerely,

Spyder

I took English as a second language, my punctuation is not text book. I like to use !!!!! And my spelling is better than many English speaking people. Now you all know a little more about me. Don't like it? Too bad, plenty do! LOL!

Cleaned House

noreply@blogger.com (Spyder) — Tue, 11 Jan 2011 05:57:00 +0000

I cleaned house a bit here. I've removed some inactive blogs. I would love to add any new (to me) active blogs to the list. Of course I couldn't remove Greg Beck's Death's Door. I just couldn't & besides I love to go back & read his blog. He still makes me laugh. RIP big man.
