I’ve continued blogging on Blogspot. Has Blogjob resumed paying writers yet? I *did* promise to come back if/when that happened, and I must say those Amazon ads look a lot better than the pop-in ads that were alienating readers when I was on Blogjob…

Is there still a law requiring that rental properties be occupied for a few months out of each year, or the tax rates become punitive?

(One of those problems some people wish they had…For years, relatives in Florida needed someone to go and occupy their rental properties, nice little houses, quiet neighborhoods, pleasant company and close to…[Read more]

Seems especially germane to Blogjob today…

Cheers! Such a great feeling when roof work is done…

Irregularly, yes, at my Blogspot. Some days I share some of it on Google +, some days not; some days I’m not online at all but have pre-scheduled a book review to pop up anyway.

3. That’s why, although Blogjob was wonderful while it lasted, I’m not seeing good things ahead for this site. Advertisers cannot keep on coasting on posts for which Blogjob has yet to pay me $80+. If Blogjob “suspended payments” while owing others more than $10, then they too need to consider moving their posts back to their own Amazon (or…[Read more]

1. I suspect the ones who really have least are the ones who have too much integrity to take the handouts that the U.S. government really can’t afford to continue offering to able-bodied people. I see a lot of welfare cheats waddling around, fatter by many waist sizes than I’ve *ever* been. Today I’m walking around in a skirt that was too tight…[Read more]

No need for hurt feelings. If advertisers are telling him they’ll pay for articles rather than blog posts, everybody should of course stop blogging there and wait to get the kind of payments that are appropriate for articles rather than blog posts. Just don’t give in to the lowballing advertisers. No research without payment. No more than one web…[Read more]

I’d guess that the bad energy is coming from the depressive person(s). I was thinking about this topic this morning, though, reading a letter to the editor about how the physical layout of my town “doesn’t like” wheelchair users. Chortle. We the people love wheelchair users, but steep hills of crumbling limestone keep shifting under the pavement…[Read more]
