Taking care of business
Unfortunately I must do blog maintenance every once in a while.
Some blogs have gone defunct, some have moved or gone private. Check out my links if I have yours wrong or if you want yours added. Just send me an Email: bohab@hotmail.com.
I may have lost some readers along the way with off the cuff remarks or a badly worded joke about politics, sex or religion. If so I'm sorry.
The Democrat priest at the donkey show remark was not aimed at you personally. It's not my aim to offend anyone but at the same time I try to be true to myself and what I think is funny.
I'm still taking questions for Dear Hammer. I'll tackle just about anything you can throw at me. I know just enough to be dangerous. I will keep it anonymous unless otherwise requested. If you've got a problem silly or serious, lay it on me bohab@hotmail.com then visit http://hammeroid.wordpress.com/ for my answer.
I use rss feeds to see who has recently updated their blog and usually visit and read based on what it shows as new and updated.
There are a handful of you guys that have "feeds"disabled on your blog controls. Since I see this method of blog viewing as becoming the default it might be a good idea to enable this feature.
It will most likely increase your number of readers and the comments you receive. You can tell if you have feeds enabled if you see this on your browser bar when you are on your blog page.
If it's orange you are good to go. If it's gray then feeds are disabled

You should come up with a helpful rhyme about the feeds. "If it's gray, no feeds today. If it's orange..."
Hmmm. I'll get back to you.
still here...I liked the democrat priest at the donkey show remark...
I just flat don't read blogs that don't have a feed. It's just too much trouble to keep up if I can't throw it into Bloglines.
Yeah, I need to do some blog-keeping too.
Thank God Annie turned me on to Blogrolling!
Your video post on the 29th is pure craziness.
I'll check it.
Still reading, Hammer. I've just been feeling quiet lately...
Just know I am still here and still enjoying the craziness that is you! I read the entries to my husband every now and again, because he is always wondering why I am laughing so hard...
Riddle Me This?
Question:
How many Democratic Priests at a
Tijuana Donkey Show does it take to change a light bulb?
Answer:
Nun.
get it?
OH, MY...
what I really mean to say is that you should say what you want; I mean it's your site, and all that.
people can self-exorcize their frredom of choice, and if they don't like what they see, they will.
me, though, I like it, see? so, I'm back, once again...
... only, this time, with a little Holiday Wish:
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
yup.
"threemusketeersbar"
B-)

ummmmmmm what?
I'm a blog retard
Yeah, I go silent for awhile here and there, but I just hate it when all my favorite blogs go silent at the same time. I had just found Dan's blog when he pulled the plug. Some blogs start off cool, then end up all boring. Yours continues to be a great one. Glad you're still blogging, man.
Thanks for the tip, Hammer. Will check it out. My link's fine, thankee!!! Non-PC-ness sure doesn't impact me....
Off the cuff remarks and badly worded jokes are your right. That's what I love about the blogging world. You get to be who you are and if someone doesn't like it, they can go on their way. Personally, I love the fact that you make no apologies for your own opinions and ideas.
WHAT??? I dont get what I need to do. What does this mean? Huh?
I don't see gray or orange... Is mine dressed as a ghost today? Looked in my formating and didn't see anything to do with "site feeds"?
i'm a blogtard also - i just recently learned how to do links for crying out loud!
my little thingy is orange, however - so i'm good to go?
I must think of a good dear hammer question... hmmmm
I think I have mine done correctly. Hmm...I don't know.
I should check out setting up a Bloglines type of thing. There's so many blogs I like to read nowadays...someone throw something at whoever said people would stop reading.
Hammer,
You Rock! Thanks for updating everything. As you can tell, I am still in the process of updating mine.
As anti-government as your stances always are, I am surprised you aren't using your blog to shill for Ron Paul.
I have been, but for probably different reasons...
Diesel: Orange..orange...me either
Katherine: whew! ;)
alan: It really is tough.
LBB: That's my next step for sure.
FHB: yours is good :)
Kuckie: that is really good to hear :)
Dr chip: nun lol You're right of course :)
alekx: yours is set up for feeds. I think it's the default now.
Paul: Yeah some of my faves have pulled the plug too. thanks for the kind words. I'll keep mine going for as long as I have two fingers to peck with :)
Bridget: glad to hear it :)
Terri: well in that case I;m sure I can dig up some more off color stuff :)
stepping: Your blog has the rss feeds enabled. Don't worry :D
cheesy: Yours is working. the orange icon is usually on the top right of the tool bar.
nanc: yep all good :)
liz: yeah the automated services will be good in case I lose my hard drive again.
flyinfox: just drop me a line when the move is complete :)
scott: I like Ron Paul mostly for the fact he tries to use logic and the constitution when voting in congress. However I don't usually promote candidates on my blog. It's probably against the law these days anyway lol.
Great - you're still taking questions ....
Dear Hammer,
What happens to colour blind people who can't tell the difference between orange and grey?
Thanks for letting me know about the "feeds" option I will check it out. I checked my link on your pg and it still works...glad to see because I think you rock!!!
