That's one of the nicest comments! I sure don't think I'll change the world via blogging. I enjoy it, though - most of the time. Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment. I TRULY appreciate it. Thanks, William! That’s one of the nicest comments! I sure don’t think I’ll change the world via blogging. I enjoy it, though - most of the time.

Just keep doing what YOU want to do, Carol. If it makes you happy, write it. If not, don't. One of the biggest mistakes I see in the blogosphere is people not writing what they are really interested in, but what generates traffic. Sure, we all do that to some degree, from Michelle Malkin down to the tiniest blog in the Ecosphere. But, some do it all the time. Take a look at the lefty blogs. They are all clones of Kos. So, you do what you want, and don't worry about anyone else. That's why I have you on my RSS. You know what? Just keep doing what YOU want to do, Carol. If it makes you happy, write it.

I can empathize with you, RT and Jake, but that puppy stuff eventually goes away. I have 2 dogs and they both went through the housebreaking torturing everyone around. He is a cute pup, I met a man that had the British Labourdor they are the perfect size. Keep sparkling ************* Keep it up your blogs are very interesting, informative and very educational.

My default category is "Pointless Nonsense." The <i>content</i> of my blog is essentially pointless, but it's fun. It's a funny paradox. If you blog about nothing, but it's fun, then it serves a purpose. If you think you're on some sort of mission to change politics, then it's meaningless, unless it's fun to try. Anyhoo, there's one and only one reason to blog, and that's because it's fun. If it's not fun - quit.

However, I've read enough to know that you are intelligent and thoughtful, and people who think need to make their presence known in the world. Keep on blogging.
