Donna - I wouldn't worry too much about it. You've gotten a lot of attention from this, plenty of comments. You touched a nerve. Plus (and I could be alone in this view but somehow I doubt it), I don't think ALL AC readers note every little typo- or even the main point sometimes. Again, I could be wrong about that (grin).
When I read your title, I was wondering which words or phrases would get the most page views: "strip" "Strip search", "Florida Cop Dumps" (that one makes you think, doesn't it? Ewww...), Strip search woman, "Cop dumps" "Dumps" etc.
Clearly, I need a refresher course in keywords and SEO and all that...
Oh My E. You are better than coffee...when am I going to learn though. I'm tired of wiping my first cup off from the screen after reading one of your zingers. And Jean and Jane, you both made me smile too...dark circles, beauty treatments...ah, it's all good. I SO needed a laugh after looked at my last article. The typos are *horrendous* -- bad enough calling a diseased person "diseased", I made the near fatal mistake of using "their" for "there," among other blunders. Oy! We're sick here and I just want to pull the covers over my head but I have my best paying gig to date to do...I guess they didn't see this article. But alas, I guess I'll brag about it *after* I get paid at the rate I'm going.
Eerily, it didn't take long for me to respond "in character' and ask them to be more courteous about how they wrapped their food before putting it in the neighborhood trash cans for me to get, etc. They seemed to like that. I got some flack for suggesting that some guy add beer or cinnamon to his chili. Someone said something about "the nerve of a raccoon trying to tell a guy how to cook." Some people get WAY too involved with avatars. Yeah,right, I'm a typing raccoon...fine...whatever floats their boat and their insanity.
I didn't even have to Photoshop it although I don't have the same exact shade of dark circles yet. Give me a couple of more months of writing and i might get there.
Well, I put this up because I get tired of seeing my face on various websites, for one. And whatever I say here I probably don't want to admit too. Just try Photoshop blur, soften and sandblasting...works for me on one of my other photos. :-)
You want me to put up an avatar when yours is a pole dancer. Oh, fine, I'm sure I can find something but I want to know what you imagine me looking like, FIRST, so I can decide how badly I need Botx - or not.
OMG-oosh Jane you had me laughing so hard and it wasn't pretty with mouthful of claim chowder. What an odd man...one attracted to the voice of someone with chronic sinusitus. I'm debating on putting up a scarier avatar that better represents me. I overly photoshoped my ehow one and getting some pervs. Ah well...it's a joy when you're over 40 I guess no matter the source eh? :-)
Donna -
I just put up an article and ended up promoting you, although I was really trying to point out a new market for AC and your audio and video articles fit the topic. I could not put in all the details about my friend and how much he liked your voice, not on Ac, anyway. After going on and on about how much he liked your voice and asking me to describe what you looked like (I did not comply) he went in the bathroom and made some very strange sounds. And he is married! We did not talk about it afterwards. I left all those details out but I still think I left some humor in the piece. I didn't wring all the humor out of it and leave it, dry and shivering, out there on AC.
OMG, you put up the spinning pole dancer, gotta love it. I'm a little freaked by how well Bilary work together as one head...I thought they'd look weirder but it...almost...works..visually. I'm laughing at Grits "Hill-billy" comment. :)
It amazes me how fast comedians can come up with political humor. We can all learn from them. That Hillary and Bill fused into one photo works as humor because so many people call them Billary. Putting that thought into a visual was clever.
Good spirit Reva...it's just funny as I'm a moderate and I don't even have a political message (except vote and learn about the candidates) but the comedy of late I keep getting is political. Most elections, or the aftermath, seems to be tragic anyway...so comedy provides good stress relief. :-)
Thanks for the welcome! Don't worry about the Hillary stuff. I'm sure in the months to come we'll all find great political stuff to post from both sides of the fence.
