Yet ANOTHER Spammer... Says:

Hey! I think if these things all the time for example if you buy land do you own it all the way to the core of the Earth? If a turtle doesn’t have a shell is it naked or homeless? Why is bread square but most sandwich meat round? I liked your site- it gave me some more things to think about!

Superb gen, valuable and first-rate design. Good ideas and concepts, lots of passionate information and inspiration. Thanks for all the enthusiasm to present such a valuable gem here.

 
 
Harsh... Says:

If you’re never going to update this blog, you should take it down. You have tons of books to write about, and a base of readers who would happily review your books. Instead you choose to post an occasional (and I’m being kind) piece and leave this site dead for the most part. Just kill it if you don’t want to do something useful with it.
