Sorry Google: Blogger STILL Blows
While I was away, taking care of my life, a funny thing happened around here.
Blogger changed all the locks.
And the new management made some policy changes.
Before, if I wanted to post, all I did was go to my dashboard, and POOF-no big deal.
Now I had to come up with sooper secreet handshakes, 12 forms of ID, a magic word, proof of financial responsibilty, utility statements from the past 6 months and check a box stating that I will in no way or form, taunt, annoy, badger or bait or engage in any type of "disapproved" hatespeech, copyright infringement or general naughtiness.
Then and only then would Das Google ok me to blather at will. So I did.
THEN when I noticed an ever so tiny typo that I wanted to correct on my post, Das Google shut me down completely!
Began shouting" FIRE! Danger Danger, Will Robinson! Intruder alert intruder alert!! Go away!!! You are a virus, you are a hacker...for the good of our community we must forbid your entrance!!!!"
Kinda felt like this:
Huh? WTF??? Jeez, a minute ago y'all didn't have a problem. Took me a good 30 minutes, a reboot and a new browser to clear that lil' misunderstanding up.
Does it do that alot here ? I've been gone.
Oy.
I can see I'm really gonna love it here, now. Really like what you've done with the place, Goog.

I had the virus spank me alert today for the very first time.
It must have been your fault.
Yeah...probably so.
I could break an iron skillet with a rubber mallet.
