On blogging
I try to read and comment on any blog who cares enough to leave me a comment. Some folks have no blog linked in their profile so I figure they don't have one or it's private. If you want me to come read you, don't be shy. Send me an Email at bohab1969@yahoo.com
Don't send any more email to my hotmail account or it will probably end up in some electronic round file in Nigeria.
As a side note:
There are some blogs and blog posts that I cannot read or comment on and still keep my sanity. Here are some examples:
Blogs devoted to macaroni art.
Blogs that devote themselves to large odd shaped vegetable insertions
The hippy peace blog ring for self joy and understanding.
Buster O-ring's blog guide to gay bar restrooms.
Blogs devoted to breast feeding children until they are 12 years old.
Goth blogs with sad poetry, hair dye and self mutilation.
I think you get the idea.

At long last I understand why you don't comment on mine!!!! ha ha
You are a faithful (far more than me) commenter. I admire that about you. I read... and can't think of anything snarky (brilliant) to say so I don't. Probably best for all... ;-)
Damn - now I'm going to have to think of something to write about tonight. I was all set to go with my macaroni art post...
It is good to know the rules.

Let me get my hot glue gun out and a box of Macaroni. Daughter Dear is going to make you something.
What? You don't like those dark, depressing Edgar Allen Poe quotes? :O Want me to start using Barney quotes instead? :D
I'm unable to visit a blog, without leaving a comment. Perhaps it is due to the fact my blog may have between 60 and 90 visits each day...but only 4-12 comments. Perhaps it is my Catholic upbringing, so I simply live with guilt, or perhaps I fear a blog-purgatory exists!
Damn, I just finished a post all about the 12 year old kid who was able to paint his macaroni art, while being nursed in a gay bar restroom which featured amateur sad hippy poetry. Thanks, Hammer...had to hit the delete button on that entry. :)
In all seriousness, I do thank you for your comments!

Oh bummer, I was just about to write an entry. It was a dark poem about the life of a straight goth Fusilli who falls in love with a gay Penne and cuts herself because of the unrequited love she has to endure. So she hooks up with a two headed cucumber who lived through a nuclear explosion instead and finally finds peace. I guess I will just skip that one. :-)
I think I might like that hippie blog...
One thing for sure, you really have a knack for bringing out the "creative" side in all your blogger friends, don't you?
What's a round file in Nigeria though?
Well, I don't devote my blog to vegetable insertions, but by golly plenty of "googlers" get there by looking for "how to insert cucumbers". I do dye my hair though...hmmm...and I'm not sure if doing the head-desk routine repeatedly counts as self mutilation or not. :o)
No worries. Most people I visit find my blog incomprehensible.
Whew, I don't think i fit in any of those categories! I'd miss your comments!
How about Macaroni art with Veggie insertions.....I'm just saying :)
As a vegetarian you must find those' large and odd shaped vegetable insertion' blogs particularly up-setting.
I need to go through my "reader roll" again and get some of the used to be a mommy blogger now an infidelity blogger crap out of there.
I used to spend more time searching for good blogs - now I spend more time hoping my favorite blogs don't reinvent themselves.
I don't leave a lot of comments...I do read a lot of blogs every day and I appreciate any comments left on mine. But I also understand that it takes time to make a comment...especially on those sites that require the interpretation and typing in the damn code words...those I usually just skip even if I had a comment to make.
alaina: If I can't think of something remotely pertinent to say I move on and try again next post. Doesn't happen often though.
Terri: At least use rigatoni or farfalle ;)
Admiral: Rules are meant to be broken ;)
H20: kids don't know any better ;)
easily lost: Poe was happy go lucky compared to what I'm talking about :)
Airman mom: lol! I probably would have made an exception for that!
MTBLaura: You could make a mint with that idea. You may even get a grant from the national endowment for the arts :D
Jeannie: it would make your head explode trust me ;)
Jeni: Thanks, a round file in nigeria...a scammers spammer waste basket..my hotmail account has been sending Emails into oblivion.
snigglefritz: Head banging is thereputic for sure and those google searches..yeah I try not to look anymore.
SQT: The Sci Fi one? I've read it but I'm so totally clueless I'm afraid my comments would consist of "I like turtles"
Barbara: Now you know so you can help me keep watch ;)
Fyremandoug: sounds like a recipe ;)
Powdergirl: I used to stay at my best frinds house and his mom was a total pervert with always one large cucumber in the crisper...I would never eat it out of fear that her and her girlfriends "used" it.
Dana: I need to add that to my list ack!
guyk: Blogger and whatever else has simplified the words to make them more easily remembered however if I have to wait for the crap to load I'm out of there.
"The hippy peace blog ring for self joy and understanding"
Whew for a moment I thought you were referring to me.. but I am the hippy chick!
Hammer, I am just happy that you haven't excommunicated me off your blog!
I can certainly understand why frequenting those blogs would annoy you.
I get behind in reading folks, busy with work or other things. But then I get some time, like now, and I try to catch up.
And I'll try to avoid the "breast feeding your teenager in a gay bar shitter" post. Hilarious!
Are there really blogs on macaroni decorations? If so, think of all those lost years when I was unaware of it!
I suck at commenting. Never have been good at it.
Dick

liked your post and appreciate the visits from you. You, GuyK, H20 and Terri are all entered in my car giveaway. good Luck:)
Ps think I will go over and check out Dana's blog
cheesy: I like hippies..tastes like chicken ;D
flyinfox: You never fail to post something though provoking.
FHB: lol the mental picture on that gave me a shudder.
Dick: I dunno, your maxi pad comment was pretty damn funny.
That's a good list to keep in mind.
I guess I'll have to rethink today's post:
"How macaroni art saved me and brought self joy and understanding while standing in the coolest gay bar restroom with sad poetry on the walls."
That's a lot of reading, Hammer. I'm more selfish with my time. I mean, it's one thing to blog about one's life and interests, but it's quite another thing to know how to blog and be entertaining. You know, it's like Bob Seeger said, "what to leave in, what to leave out".
"sites that require the interpretation and typing in the damn code words...those I usually just skip even if I had a comment to make." I agree. PLUS ... requiring a google acct sucks, too
I'm guilty of the "breast feeding children until they are 12 years old." post, but trust me it was not on a positive note.
;-)
Mike: I've never read any gay bathroom poetry..I'm sure I'm missing out ;)
Paul F. Yeah I know what you mean. I leave about out about 80% I use the time people normally spend in front of the TV reading blogs instead.
Anna: the google verification and the blogs that want a piss sample are the worst.
I think my blog is safe.
Who breast feeds until 12
That list is...I dunno, just weird. Good call though.
Damn, there goes my post about breastfeeding my twelve-year-old while reading sad poetry in a gay bar restroom.
(OK, OK, I don't even have a 12-year-old.)
I have these macaroni noodles shaped like peace signs that I strung into chainmail vests for my dogs that I was gonna picture with a poem about my botched dye job....hahahhaha.
Blogs, comments... beauty is we can all come and go, as we like.
Are fruit insertions Okay? How do you feel about gerbils? Or Green Peace...or the NAACP?
ohdang! and to think i was going to invite you to cohost a macaroni art blog with me...*;]
LMRSSO@your list....
