Asylum Tutorials: How To Follow A Blog...

Do you know how to be a proper blog follower? Most of you do. Unfortunately, many others do not. Being the follower of a blog is like being someone's friend; there is a give and a take, but no demands are made, save for respecting one another.

There is a curious phenomenon in the blogosphere that makes seemingly normal {I use this term quite loosely} people believe that your blog and it's content are dictated by them. I have heard from several bloggers about how they have gotten nasty emails and/or comments demanding to know where their certain post is or how the author cannot write about certain subjects because it's not what they like to read about. Each time I hear about this, the demands have gotten more brazen and ridiculous. Color me gobsmacked. I have yet to have this happen to me, but I am sure at some point it will.

And I will tell them exactly this:

This is my blog, not yours. I write what i like. I decorate my sidebars how I want and I have it designed the way I want it to look. If you want me to write a certain way about certain things, then it no longer is my hobby or fun and has now become a job. With rules, restrictions and deadlines. Therefore, I should be getting a paycheck for doing this.

Of course, I am always up for making extra cash.

The fee schedule is as follows:

1) Posts about my daughter $675
Videos add $195
Pictures are $10 each
2) Posts about my Husband $65
Rants are an extra $25
Intimate details add $150
Pictures are $10 each
Videos add $1000
3) Posts about politics or current events $175
My political views add $50
Posts about the other party $300
Pictures are $10 each
Videos add $300
4) Sarcasm is $600
Humor add $250
Pictures are $10 each
Videos add $200
5) Posts about my crazy Mother $450
In~Laws add $250
The Free Range Stupid/Rednecks add $300
Pictures are $10 each
Videos add $300
6) Advertorials $100 {This will only be copy and paste, no creative content}
Videos add $50
Pictures add $10 each
7) Reviews $300
Videos add $75
Pictures add $10 each
I will also require a blog redesign monthly by the designer of my choice. My PayPal is babyrocasmama@hotmail.com.

Payment is required in advance of writing the post. Article will be published when I have time. Payor will have no editorial rights.

~*~*~ OR ~*~*~

This is MY blog, Not yours. Until you pay me the big bucks, I will write, post and do what I want. Go ahead, stop following me, I care not. This world in general, and the blogosphere specifically, would be a much better place if you would get off the "net entirely and get a real life.

Go on now...GO!

To reiterate, the proper way to follow a blog is to read the author's posts, comment genuinely, even if your opinion is different than theirs, be respectful and REALIZE IT IS THEIR BLOG NOT YOURS.

I hope you all learned something useful today. Thank you for reading and for your understanding of my unique brand of sarcasm and craziness. Tongue out Laughing

Socialism Alert!! Can We Say INDOCTRINATION, Class? School Children Made To Sing Songs To The "Dear Leader".

The second song on this video, when sung with the original lyrics, is usually accompanied by a Confederate Flag. Stupid fucking Liberals, anyone? {Not you Courtney. You know I wuv you, even with your unfortunate political affiliation!} Or is this just another case of "taking it and making it ~~totally Politically Correct~~ ~~a show of their stupidity for all the world to see~~ their own"?

Obama is not a god, people!! He is a half black, half white, inexperienced, completely inept JUNIOR Senator who convinced a group of naive, starstruck people to vote for him through expert manipulation and celebrity endorsements. How much time did he actually spend as a Senator before running for President? 143 days? Yeah, THAT qualifies him to run the whole damn country. Sure!

All he really is is a cheesy, greasy car salesman who lies to get you to buy his piece of shit vehicle. He has given every man, woman and child in this country a debt of $66,000.00. And this figure is sure to rise as he taxes us little people onto the welfare rolls and out of our jobs and takes our money to give to the big corporations in a desperate attempt to revive a brain dead economy. Yep, he changed things, but not for the better. AIG and their six figure bonuses and luxury vacations, anyone? Uh huh, I thought so.

I have one thing to say about this: If I ever find out that my daughter has been made to do anything like this in class, there will be such a stink made by be and my Husband, it will make their collective heads spin. We will file lawsuits upon lawsuits. And believe you me, heads will roll. My daughter will not be indoctrinated into this bullshit called Socialism. If the American public lets this happen, it will be the death of everything this country was founded upon and holds dear. We might as well all become members of Al Qaeda and start speaking Chinese.

Then there is this little ditty from last year's campaign. I saw images of kids singing to the "dear leader" when I first heard this song. It turned my stomach. It still does. And what, exactly, has Obama changed? There is still the same pork barrel spending, catering to special interest groups, greasing palms, political corruption and catering to the rich that there has always been where the Democrats are concerned. Oh, let's not forget about their need to control every aspect of our lives because we are too stupid to figure it out on our own.

Contrary to popular belief and Party rhetoric, the Dems are not "for the people". They are for the people that believe as they do, only. All dissenters will be shunned, torn apart by the media then shot in a fully televised public execution, as a deterrent, lest anyone else try to think for themselves.

This is part of the workbook/teaching materials/study guide that went a long with Obama's speech to the schools:

{Clicky to make biggy}

Anyone get why we Right Wingers were all so pissed about it now? And they call US crazy and paranoid! The proof, as they say, is in the pudding, my friends.

My Big Bro, So Eloquent....

I had to post this letter from my Big Bro's blog. He said everything I was already thinking, funny how family works that way, huh? Now read this and then go give him some bloggy love.

Open Letter To President Barack Obama
from Hard Reset by KSS

Mr. President,

Tomorrow you will become the first black president in the history of the United States of America. I congratulate you on this history making accomplishment. You genuinely seem to be a decent man, and maybe someone I would enjoy talking to over a beer, at least until the conversation turned to politics. That's when things might turn sour.

Now let me tell you why I don't, and will not support you. First and foremost, despite all your soaring rhetoric, you are a socialist and by definition you do not believe in the core principals that this country was founded on. Second, you are the most thoroughly un-vetted person to ever ascend to this office, you have yet to release a legitimate birth certificate, despite the fact that doing so would quash all the speculation about your true place of birth and citizenship. Third, it is already apparent that you intend to try to spend your way out of the current financial crisis, something that has never worked in the history of government, ever. Yet somehow you contend that this time it will work despite all historical
evidence to the contrary.

Next let's talk about your friends, and boy do you have some winners there. For twenty years you considered an America hating racist pastor as your close friend and mentor. And when called to task for this you claim you had no idea about his views and that in twenty years of attendance at the church you never once heard him say anything like that. This excuse means you are either oblivious to what is right in front of your face or an ass covering liar, neither of which gives me confidence in your ability to hold the office to which you are about to ascend.

You launched you political career in the living room of a home grown terrorist named Bill Ayers, whose actions directly led to the deaths of two police officers, one of them a black man. Yet you served on boards with this man, lived in the same neighborhood and even wrote a preface for one of his books. When called to answer for this relationship you claimed he was just a guy in your neighborhood. After you had won the election however Ayers began calling you a family friend again- funny that.

These are just two of the most egregious examples of more than questionable associations you have had over the years, to go through all of them would take up far too much room here. Mr. President, you are known by the company you keep. And I fear there is a reason for the company you have chosen to keep over the course of your short political career.

But my biggest problem with you Mr. President is that I believe you intend to take this country down the the road to Marxist Socialism, and that is completely unacceptable. Everything I have read written about you, everything I have read that you yourself have written and everything I have ever heard you say reinforces this conclusion. Put in to that mix Speaker Pelosi and the even crazier Harry Reid and I see this country headed down a road to utter ruin. From trying to make permanent bans on offshore drilling to your "Civilian Defense Force"- whatever that is- I see you wanting to make decisions that will adversely affect this country long after you are out of office.

Perhaps it is the radicals who educated you, or the radicals with whom you chose to associate both personally and professionally, perhaps it was the communist ideology that brought your parents together in the first place that was later infused in you, or maybe it's a combination of those and what I suspect is your foreign birth- But when I look at you I just do not see someone who embraces that which America is, who embraces the true soul of this nation. I see a man who wishes to remake this country in to a vision fed to him by his lifetime of indoctrination to a Marxist philosophy. I see a foreigner in both fact and philosophy.

Mr. President, I want you to be successful, but successful in a way that remains true to the ideals upon which this country was founded and that made it great. Unfortunately with your deeply rooted socialist beliefs, I don't think this is possible. I think you will cater to the left wing moonbats who got you where you are today, and that can only be bad for this country.

For all the reasons above and more, I cannot support you. I will do all I can to insure that you do minimal damage to this country and I will work diligently to defeat you in the next election.
