Goodbye Ads
After some soul searching, I decided to try some targeted ads on my blog#–I mean, why not? Revenue from blogging? Sounds good to me!
But tonight I checked out my blog and found something dispicable: a targeted ad sending people to a website promising to find acting work for a "small fee". And that is just awful. The website in question is preying on the dreams of artists, and it can not be, in any way, legitimate.
So I took off all the ads. No. More. Ads. If I can’t control it, it’s not going on my site.
So blogging will continue to be something that I pay to do, and my site will not compromise on my integrity… at least not without my doing it inadvertently through my own content. :p

Hey Nitcholas. How’s it going? I haven’t talked to you in, what seems like, forever! What have you been up to? Down here, it’s a mess, well, with Music Man anyway. It opens the 14th of this month and runs through the 19th! Wish us luck. We’ll need it!
