Know What Bothers Me?

I blog to as many people as I can and I am transparent and accessible. I publish my email address. I get lots of input and lots of comments on my blog and Facebook page. Thank you. I encourage it.

Sometimes when someone leaves a comment that is tough minded or is a rant or is mean spirited I will try to reach out to that person by email to chat. To follow up on a concern or try to understand where that person is coming from. It is being courteous and curious and I might learn something via our interaction.

And almost always that person who left that comment has provided us with a bogus email account. And that person is anonymous and it is a fake account.

I think that shows no courage and equally less tact and is not being a good net-i-zen.

Why are you afraid of leaving a name or real email address but you are not afraid to come and comment to your heart’s content on my blog? Enlighten me? I don’t get it. Isn’t it a two way street?

DIRECTV and VERSUS

Versus is back on the air. Hooray!!! Thank you Comcast. Thank you DirecTV and I hope that means I will get no more emails of complaints from hockey fans.

I had nothing to do with their fight over carriage. I had nothing to do with their settlement. I had no say and no sway over anything related to this matter. I was pleased to take your emails and am so happy this dispute has been settled. Game back on phew…am I relieved.
