I was stumbling around the net (as I tend to do when I’m not busy working, by which, I mean, almost constantly) and I happened across this photo. First of all, the caption is right. Be glad its leashed. It looks like the gothapotomus would rip the lid off a minicooper and devour whatever hapless soul was inside.

The only way that would not be a bad thing is if it’s “keeper” were driving the Mini….

Next up in the race to be the next leader of the Not So Free World is Michigan. The polls opened in MI today to a somewhat limited Democratic side (the DNC is punishing MI for moving their primary by taking all of their delegates away) with only Clinton listed on the ballot there while the GOP has a full slate of contenders (though, Thompson, Guliani and Paul are visibly lacking in the state) listed. Mit Romney is looking to gain some ground here as many have guessed that another second or third place finish in the motor state would leave him questioning whether or not he wants to continue.

Its interesting that by now, the Democratic side is almost paired down to the final three, while the GOP hopefuls are looking past what has happened to states with later primaries to gain ground (Thompson is looking to the Carolinas and most of the south, while guliani is looking to Florida and some of the other red states). It definately proves how split the republican party is going in to this election and I think if Ron Paul were smart, he’d drop out of the GOP race and focus on gaining a third party nomination. Of course whether or not he could do anything with that nomination would be a stretch.

The only thing I know for sure is that the American people have not found one consistant leader from either party to put their faith behind. If the election were today, and you had to vote for one of the six leaders, who could you vote for with out feeling the need to go in to a drug treatment program??

One of my biggest pet peeves these days are poorly constructed blogs. I don’t mean theme/template wise (though thats a sore point too, there’s NO FSCKING reason to have Music autoplaying on ANY website in this day and age. We’re not back in 1996!!!), I mean content wise. Along with some other bloggers, I’m attempting to break the chain of “Make Money Blogging” sites with an attempt to get back to the heart of things.

When Blogging started several years ago, people blogged because they wanted to share things, not make money. It wasn’t until a while after that the money making aspect came in to play. Prior to this, people put more effort in to their blogs when it came to content. The latest project I’m working on, The Art of Blogging seeks to help people find the art in blogging and concentrate more on blogging as a way of life and not just a way to make money.

The goal is to have weekly posts on a variety of topics (yes, there will be the occasional post on making money with your blog) mostly focusing on how to be a better blogger. Tips, tricks, reviews, themes, plugins and other advice will be shared by a varied panel of self described experts in the blogging world. THIS is where you come in!

We’re currently looking for people interested in writing columns about blogging. We’re also in need of reviewers and other asundry of folks to help make this site work right. If you have a talent (say, logo design!) we’d love to tap that talent! We’re also in need of ideas for posts. Tell me what you’d like to see and what you believe makes a good blog good! If you’d like to help, go to The Art of Blogging and register or leave me a note here.
