Clearing the Browser Tabs – Thank You Monday Edition

Jimmie | September 19, 2011 | Comments (1)

If I don’t say “thank you” to everyone who reads The Shack and listens to The Delivery, it’s not because I don’t feel gratitude. Quite the contrary. I suppose I feel a bit like Stacy in this regard. I’m pedaling very hard toward a level of success that remains just a fingertip out of reach, or so it seems, and I am a little bit afraid to stop pedaling and extend all the gratitude I should.

For that I will need to continue to ask your continued indulgence. I have a couple other projects in the works (yes, they’ve been in the works for a while, but there are details I didn’t quite anticipate and I’m learning on the fly here) that will take up some more of my time. When I finally release them into the open, though, I think you will be pleased and willing to plonk down a buck or two to collect all the goodness you can.Believe it or not, that buck-plonking will help fund a couple much-needed upgrades around these parts, most notably to the blog design here, which has become a little bit too constrained for what I’m doing around here. We — and by that I mean all of you who have become true fans — have helped me build something I didn’t quite expect to have seven years ago.

I know that sounded cryptic, but I hope to have more revelations for you soon. You know how I work around here. I’m as transparent as I can be, even to the point where I overpromise (which is a bad habit I need to stop right away). Really, the whole point here is to say that I am grateful to you for the time you take to read my blog and listen to my podcast and for the donations and Amazon purchases that help out. My thanks goes with you, each and every day, even if I forget to say the words as often as I should.

And now, links!

Congratulations to my friend Duane Lester and his lovely wife on the birth of Silas Paul Lester. I don’t think it will take too many years before The Silas-Niklas Blog Experience hits the net in a big way.
The real issue isn’t whether the President panders to a particular well-heeled minority but why he panders to them to the clear detriment of the rest of the nation. Perhaps he feels pity that the unions can’t go a week without shooting themselves in the foot repeatedly.
It really is easier to blame Spongebob Squarepants if your kid can’t do his schoolwork than to make the hard adjustments it would take to make him or her the top priority in your life.
Leave it to Troglopundit to make mischief with the President’s evident misery.
What happens when one Obama adviser interview another Obama adviser on CNN? Why they say wonderful things about President Obama and indicate surprise about basic economic facts! Seriously, folks, CNN should be ashamed it aired this blatant piece of propaganda.
We shouldn’t be shocked that Russia will not allow a private American space craft to dock with the International Space Station. why should they, when they stand to make millions of dollars shuttling our astronauts there themselves?
Yes, a sword cane sounds neat, but I bet you’ve not stopped to consider the practical limitations of such a weapon, have you?
