I was just saying if you want to rant then rant away.

Hey, you stopped by Sire’s blog and made your contribution; but late to the party, just be happy we left you with a small piece of cake. lol

Thanks David, and I’m glad you took this post in its proper perspective.

You’re possibly right in saying that what you wanted to say might have gotten lost in translation. You’re not alone on that front, though, as we see politicians every day say something they mean one way, then see it get twisted towards another meaning. Still, I’m sure the responses you received on that particular post have given you an education on something either way, and every once in awhile, that’s pretty important as well. It’s not always the lessons we expect to learn that we benefit from.

Thanks for stopping by; I appreciate it.

Good point, Sire. I just hope people realize it’s not sour grapes on either of our sides. I wish everyone great success; always have, always will.

Hey guys,
I think much of what I was trying to say might have gotten lost in translation. But, either way, it makes for some interesting conversation nonetheless.

Have a good one, guys.

It’s not surprising that I have more people on my side because when you look at it we have the Probloggers of this world outnumbered.

True, but I really don’t rant as often as someone might think I do. Still, this is my personal blog, and it’s personal for a reason. I figure my business blog will keep me in check, and my finance blog… well, it is what it is lol

Your commenting about taking on controversial subjects has me nodding my head. I too take on controversial subjects. I can be very opinionated which isn’t always a bad thing. Today I was told I live for Drama.

Everyone needs to rant every now and then Mitch!

That’s why I have more than one blog, DeAnna. This isn’t my business blog, and I’m almost never controversial there. But on this blog, I’ll go there if I need to. And yes, blog commenting is definitely a big deal, especially for those of us who haven’t quite reached any type of real success yet.

Mitch, you are a mess… (lol @there goes your tiger-free cred). I try not to be too controversial on my business blog. I use my personal blog for my ranting. I do need to get in the habit of responding to comments more, when I get them. Good points.

Glad to have your opinion here, Anne. And that’s another thing; you never konw when someone is a new visitor, and it’s a good thing to welcome them to the community when you can. That is, as long as you understand what someone is saying, because every once in awhile, I get a comment that I have no idea how to respond to it.

Go for the controversy, unless it’s the one where you believe we should all be wearing underwear hats. I can’t support that. lol

Sire, that’s why I had to write my post. We really are a community, and time after time that keeps getting proven, whether it’s through regular blogs or via Twitter. I mean, your post has almost 100 comments; I’m betting that’s the second biggest comment total you’ve ever had (yeah, I remember that video; you bad boy!). And it’s not even close, people agree with you on it. Oh well…

I really like Sire [and his blogs] so when he Tweeted this story I had to check it out. Actually, I just wrote a [possibly] controversial post to hit tomorrow & thought maybe your post was a sign. Sincerely, I thought maybe I should not post it. But, since I get few comments, maybe this will garner a few more. Either way, I like it when a blog owner responds to me. Makes me feel important and comfortable enough to come back.
