Comments on: Blog thoughts on a holiday weekend (bumped) http://www.yourish.com/2009/07/03/8060 Cutting straight to the point Sun, 22 Nov 2009 03:21:52 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Veeshir http://www.yourish.com/2009/07/03/8060/comment-page-1#comment-36837 Veeshir Mon, 06 Jul 2009 18:05:48 +0000 http://www.yourish.com/?p=8060#comment-36837 I put "leave it as it is", but maybe you could get in a good blog fight, it's been a while. One simple post about ... or one of his cobloggers (maybe he of the "Joooos and their Arab-killing bomb") could get some hilarity going. And as we all know, a good blogfight gets links and hits (the good kind of hits). I know, it's probably more annoying than it's worth, and courting a battle with unhinged, deranged fools like that is probably not the route you want to go.

deranged fools like that is probably not the route you want to go.

In the past, when I have commented, it was only when I had something that <b>I thought</b> would contribute to the discussion. In any case, keep on posting. I read you more often than Michelle Malkin, Hot Air or any of the others. I would not want to have to stop. Meryl:

If it has become a chore and a drag for you, if you no longer like doing it, if the task of giving us free ice cream so often is getting you down, then you should give it up, or at least take a vacation from it. You could go into occultation, like a Shi'a Imam. We, your devoted followers, would no doubt wait with impatient anticipation for your reappearance. Of course, I doubt you would hide from us at the bottom of a well. What do Snoopy and Soccerdad think? Informally it's become a group blog after all. Perhaps you could still do your pieces for Shire Network News to keep your hand in. You would then not face the task of constantly having to produce free ice cream for all of us demanding fans out here. Lifting that pressure might bring back the pleasure of it for you. Ah, it will be a duller world without catblogging pictures of Tig and Gracie. PS My vote was multiple: humorous pieces, political, and other: Israel posts. Keep us up-to-date on the cats too. Oops, I guess that's not too different from the current setup. Meryl,

I have learned more by reading your blog about the duplicity of the MSM and their deliberate undermining of Israel. Hopefully in the future, Israel will be safe from scorn and the wholesale wanton attempt by cowards to destroy her. Then your blog will change and follow a different path. All the best Pamela p.s.

It HAS changed over the years. I must say I liked it more when it was more about you - your life, your joys, your travails, your jeep, your cats, etc. Lately it seems that it concentrates more on the latest Palestinian outrage, and the lack of a response by the rest of the world. I know Israel is important to you. I am saying this poorly, but your frustration with what goes on in the middle east comes through. Maybe you do need to take a break. I'll never meet you, and I regret that, but I would rather have known you vicariously through your blog, than never to have known you at all. If you need some time, take it, and come back refreshed and renewed. Just a thought - take it FWIW. Rick Meryl – I’ve been reading your blog for years. It HAS changed over the years.

Just a thought – take it FWIW.
