Oooh...or should I just groan, rather than acknowledge that these are deeper and more creative than the most recent past ones. Clever as you are, my sweet and charming retired guy, why not find a way to make blogging pay actual $$$$$$$ instead of giving these gems away free? YOu could recruit your followers as investors. Then everybody wins and nobody groans. And don't say it's already been done. Come up with a better way to do it and knock off the competition.

LOL! I don't have as much time as Mike to be blogging so I send him the good stuff.

And as for monetizing blogs, mine has made me a total of $25.83 this year....THATS groan worthy. Shouldn't complain, I haven't been very diligent.
