I will not try to pretend as if I have anything of great interest or importance to say with this post; I'm just checking in to say hey, and to let you know of a new RGNC blogsite feature that will begin tomorrow. This new feature will be called "Mystery Link". Each new "Mystery Link" will be in the links section for one (1) week, then it will be replaced by the next Mystery Link, and there will be no hint as to where the link will take you or what it's about. You can be sure that it will fall into the previously stated PG13 editorial guidlines as per the RGNC founding charter of 1971. Now, on to some observations and questions.
In the "really ticks me off" category; the little window that pops up on the computer sometimes that tells me I have "performed an illegal action". Now, first off, I have no idea what this "illegal action" is, since I'm not doing anything that I haven't done on the computer before. But what really chaps my asphalt is that these @#$% from microsoft have the unmitigated gall to tell me, a paying customer, that I have done something illegal when it's their hack program that screwed up. In my opinion, since I am A PAYING CUSTOMER ON MY OWN COMPUTER, I NEVER do anything illegal. Instead of phrasing whatever has happened as an "illegal action", they should instead be begging our forgiveness that their @#$% software doesn't perform adequately. The window that pops up should read, "Sorry, WE messed up. Please give us another opportunity to do it right and to deserve your business in the future. Call us at 1-800-WE'RE-WRONG for prompt assistance. Thank you".
What kind of @#$% marketing and public relations hacks do they have working there? They have all the common business sense of the same @#$% on the Overland Park, Ks. city council who refused to allow a White Castle restaurant to be built there unless it was painted beige. That's right! A Beige Castle restaurant to blend in with the tract housing and strip malls! I'll tell you this, the boat can't leave here fast enough that carries these types of @#$% away from our shores. Send them to Canada! Or Fr*nce! Just send them!
I've spoken with some of you about the RGNC journal idea. Suggestions for the name of it include "Woodpecker", from Jeff Graham, and "The Vase" from Bud Lane in Neosho, Mo. We have a decision to make about it sometime soon, so keep the suggestions coming. And no, it will not be called "The Greg Christakos Quarterly".
Re: my statement on the e-mail I got suggesting boycotting oil companies to drive down the price of gasoline; the 2 companies mentioned were Mobile and Exxon, not Gulf and BP. My Mistake. I don't want to lose their lucrative sponsorship of this site. I don't know how such a mistake could have happened. Perhaps it's really not my fault at all. Perhaps Gulf and BP . . . "performed an illegal action", resulting in the incorrect statement about them. . . yeah, that has to be what happened.
be good.
