The End

June 21st, 2006 by mooo42

In case you haven’t notice by a lack of posts, my enthusiasm for this blog is waning.  I’m still chugging along reading, I think I’m on book #26 or 27, but my drive to finish the challenge this year and to discuss them is disappearing (especially when the "discussion" is just me). 

As of now, this site is on mostly permanent hiatus.  I’m frustrated with how Friendster inserts ads into my content, particularly when the ad is someone’s ass or breasts.  That is not okay.  I do not wish to participate in that sort of objectification if I can help it.  I will continue to post new content on my mirror blogger site.  I also have foodie site as well, if you are interested.

Thank you my teeny tiny readership for lending your ears (eyes?).  See you on the flip side.
