As it seems many people have discovered, I changed my blog to allow do-follow links. This is just my way of giving a little back to those who actually want to engage in conversation and leave their comments and thoughts. All comments are personally moderated and doing any of the following will send you directly to jail. You will not pass go, you will not collect $200.
- A blog post is NOT an open invitation to those with the first name “SEO” or whatever brand of shoe it is you’re peddling. Anyone who uses a keyword as their name is lame and not the type of person who’s opinion I care much about.
- If your site is riddled with pop-ups, in a language other than English, the newest nutritional supplement packaged to look like an actual pharmaceutical, get your spam on someplace else.
- You get one link, two on occasion if the link you suggest could be an actual benefit to my readers. If not enhancing the conversion with an actual informative link, get lost.
- Enough with the self promotion. This is my blog, not yours. If I wanted to promote you, I would interview you or otherwise mention your products and services on my own. If you were really that good, you wouldn’t need to post on someone else’s blog how great what you have to offer is.
Get the idea, folks? Yes, spammers suck, and will not be given any link love from me. For all the awesome people that know where it’s at – you rock and thanks!

Oh, and if your comment is nothing at all relevant to the discussion and is riddled with spelling errors and typos, your comment will also end up in my virtual round file.
Like everyone else on the face of cyberspace, there’s so much I want out of life. Some, okay a lot, is very vain and material based, while others represent personal accomplishments and experiences. I’m always thinking of the things I want to do, the places I want to see, and the goals I want to reach. Instead of keeping everything bouncing around in my head I’ve decided to throw ‘em all down on here. This list will morph over time and if everything goes somewhat okay, items that I’ve met or completed should get crossed off, 
I know, I’m weird. After reading my bucket list, tell me what the number one item is on your list, or better yet, start your own! If you have or start your own I hope you’ll share!
