Public Apology"
I thought it was funny, but guess I am outta step with the kids today, you can't believe how much negative input I got from posting the "Beatnik" joke---I kinda got beat up prettygood from the "Green" crowd bashing me about speaking negatively about alligators", and I also got nailed about Stereotyping those laid back individuals that history identifies as "beatniks", I also got a good input about those in defense of Florida, saying they didn't like the negative reflection on their great State----my apologies to one at all, didn't mean to put down the "gators", didn't mean to demean the state of Florida, ---and as for the laid back "Beatniks"---snap----snap, snap---I don't give a S***!
My Belated Thanks
The old dude got around to doing his homework finally. I have learned that four of you took the time to review my blog and assign me your evaluations---I am totally grateful for your kind words , and I will endeavor to post stuff and hopefully meet your expectations.
So again my grateful thanks to Rose, Judi, Wendy and Sue. Should any other of my readers care to rate me, you only have to click the "Review Me" button up in the upper right hand corner of my page here, then when the new screen comes up scroll down to the bottom and have at it.

Chuckle Up
I figure if others can input humorous jokes and stories, then no reason why I can't do the same-----so here's my chuckle for the day (And Kay??---its okay to steal it ).
-----Its late afternoon, on a secluded Florida Lake, Two beatniks are sitting at the end of the dock, both a bit spaced out from smoking a couple joints, both snapping their fingers to some languid beat they got going in their heads----neither saying much, but then one beatnik comments, "Oh---like WOW Man--(snap------snap-----snap), like an Alligator just bit my foot off!"-------(snap-----snap-----snap), the other Beatnic replies, "Which one man?"---(snap---snap----snap) The first beatnic replies, "I don't know man----all them gators look alike to me!!"

Weekday Blogger, OR Weekend Wild Person?
Dear "KING OF THE BLOGGERS",
Not chained to the traditional 40 hour 8-5 grind, each day is pretty much what I want to make of it. As a blogger I have noted two things. The majority of Bloggers are of the Female persuasion---and the vast majority of Bloggers don't work their blogs on weekends. This in turn, after much thought has allowed me to conclude. Most Bloggers , blog from their jobs (while on the job), and in that they are not at work on weekends , ignore they're blogs-----.
My problem is how to resolve this big drop in blogging commentary and excitement over the Saturday and Sunday weekends?? I KNOW there HAS to be others like myself, okay, okay blog junkies that we are, out there. How does one go about finding the 24/7 Bloggers? Like there must be those that work on weekends that blog, people like myself not chained to the standard 40 hour work week and exhausted by raising family and dealing with THOSE problems, ????
As King of the Bloggosphere---please advise----
