I like it when I get mail like this:

From reader Scott Starnes:

Patrick,

Keep up the good work brother. I’m new to the blogging scene (just started in April) but I write as many articles as I can and do love so much to piss liberals/progressives off. I get attack in the same way. Liberals want to kill the messenger whenever you speak the truth about their Dear Leader. I am adding you to my blogroll. Keep up the fight and keep driving the libtards insane. Enjoyed reading your blog.

Thanks Scott. 😀

As you may have noticed. I went back to a 3 column design and I dropped some ads.

The columns were a bit excessive and they did cramp the site a bit. I dropped the ads by ShareASale, because I was just not making any money on them. Makes no sense to me at all, to have ads on a site, if they’re not paying. So, I canned them. From here on out it is BlogAds and Adsense. For the record the ShareAsale Ads, (Bible Ads, Patriot shirts, and ect…) were the type of ads that paid only if you bought something. Those are known as Affiliate ads or Pay per action ads.

So, it’s back to a less cluttered design. Hopefully, this will work.

That is all.

As you all know; here as of late, I have been getting an earlier start. I am finally getting myself back around to getting in the bed at night and getting up earlier.

Well, last night I stayed a little later than I have been being. I normally, here as of the past couple of weeks; have been getting in the bed at rather early hour, like say 9:30-10:00 at night and getting up at like 4:00-4-30 in the morning. I had been also scheduling posts for later in the day as well.

Well, last night, I ate a rather big meal and I knew that I had to stay up, and finish a task on a game that I play on facebook, called Yoville. Please, don’t laugh; My mom got me into playing those silly games; Farmtown, MafiaWars, Farmville, Yoville, and all the rest of the silly games on there. 🙄  The staying up late part did not work, because I STILL woke up at about two in the morning, with my supper wanting to come back up. Not a pleasant experience and leave it at that.

So….. I was up a wee bit later this morning; at what some would call a saner hour, like 8:00 in the morning. But, of course, I had to do some Computer maintenance, Windows upgrades, disk cleanup and now doing a defragmentation of the drive. Anyone wanna donate so I can get me a Macbook Pro 17? It’s only 4K, if I get all the niceties with it! 😉 😛 😀

So, anyhow, I’m here now and going to try and get some content up. Don’t expect essays today, just links and short remarks.

That is all….

I happened to get this in my e-mail inbox:

Your server experienced a service failure recently resulting in the need for us to perform a reboot. As a result, we are scheduling maintenance to perform a manual file system check (FSCK) between the hours of 12am and 2am CT tonight to ensure there is not data corruption on the hard drives. We do not anticipate this taking more than a couple hours barring major problems being detected by the FSCK.

If you have any questions regarding this email, please contact Technical Support via the Support tab in Backstage.

Best Regards,

Ah, the joys of shared hosting. 🙄

Funny thing is, I never knew it went down. 😛

I would like to personally and publicly thank reader Beverly, who lives in New Jersey, for your very nice donation to the blog.

It’s those little donations like this one; that make running this blog a joy. It is also good to know that someone out there enjoys what I serve up here. Not that it is about money, but seeing I am in the position that I am in; No Job, Living with Parents, and no prospects of a job — It makes life a little easier.  I will be the first to tell you, my situation could be much worse than it is now and it would be, if it were not for my parents. However, unlike the socialists, I will not run to the Government for a hand out or a solution to my problems. I will rebuild my life —- on my own. I do not need Barry’s Socialist stupidity to do so.

Also, to those of you on twitter, who follow me, I thank you for “Retweeting” my tweets; you guys are amazing. Here’s some numbers for you. Yesterday alone I had 541 people come look at my posting about the Tea Party Protest up in D.C., today there were 265 views on the tea party story. On that 9/11 story that I posted about, there were 100 people that viewed it yesterday.

I know the question that you are asking yourself. “Well, how much was the donation?” Not that it is anyone’s business; but it was $50.00. (Minus PayPal fees, which were dollar and some change) But, Believe me, I am EXTREMELY grateful to get donation of that, or any size, at all. Especially from people that I do not even know or have never met. Especially seeing that ye ol’ Bank account is, at this moment, at 85 bucks and some change. Of course, that will change when PayPal decides to stop holding my donation hostage, which takes about 3-5 days.

Of course, there are some of you, ahem —  shall we say?  —– Well-to-do Conservatives out there, that look at that Donation amount and chuckle to yourselves and say, “That’s a paltry sum…” Well, let me be the first to tell you; You see that little donation button over there on the right hand side, inner side bar, second from the top? Hit it baby; Hard. I am a “Verified Account”, which in PayPal terms, means that I can receive as much as you want to send! Of course, if some charitable Conservative sends me some huge honking, multi-thousand or ever better Multi-Million Dollar donation, I would have to grab my friend Ryan by the shirt collar and ask him the name of that Company that does the LLC registration service. I would also have to open a separate bank account, if things got really, really big. Then my life would get really complicated really fast! Not to mention the IRS would take a shining to me really quick! (That’s hillbilly for get interested really quick for you Yankee folk….)

But first things first, Again, I am eternally grateful to everyone who has, so far, been supportive of my efforts here. Every time someone retweets my twitter postings, I smile, literally. I mean, I am like a little kid, all pointing and giggling at the fact that someone has retweeting my postings. Which is why I have to close tweetdeck at times; otherwise I would get nothing done! 😉

Okay, enough this Halo-Polishing stuff. Let’s get back to Blogging and criticizing Obama and his socialism! Just a quick note, if you have any sort of a insider tip of anything that is happening in Washington D.C. and want to clue me in, I am always ready for the exclusive! You can do some by going to my “Contact Me” page on my Blog and filling out the information and submit your tip. If it is something huge, please provide a contact number, so I can check it out and make sure it is legit. If you wish to remain anonymous; I will respect your confidentiality when reporting the story.  Just as well, if you just want to write to tell something, feel free! Unlike some of these “High falootin” Bloggers who won’t answer e-mails; I read and usually answer every last one!  Now, if you write me and call my daddy a Redneck or my Momma a street walker or a something ugly like that, I most likely will ignore you or I may just put it on the blog, so, that everyone else can see what kinda idiot you really are…. or if you threaten to get the Mafia after me or the Obama knuckle bustin’ committee after me, I will most likely get the F.B.I. involved and ask them pay you a visit. Then again, I could just get Robert Stacey McCain to run naked through your back yard! I mean, that’s enough to make any lost soul come to Jesus. Don’t believe me? Go look at that poor man’s Picture.

Anyhow, enough this silliness. Thanks to everyone!

To Liberty!

-Patrick

Update: Maybe that wasn’t so short after all. Yeah, I changed the name of the title. I get like that; rambling on. 🙄
