Not The Last Time I’ll Mention Ted McGinley…

"Goddess, NO!"

So, I'm starting to think of myself as the Ted McGinley of blogging. For the uninformed, Ted McGinley is an actor who is referred to as a "show killer"; every time he is added to the cast of a show, it ends up getting canceled. The main exception to this is "Married...with Children", where he played Jefferson Darcy for about 9 years. Prior to that, he had a hand in killing "Happy Days" and "The Love Boat". It's not his fault, but people seem to think he's cursed. The same goes for the lovely Rena Sofer and Carla Guigino.

Either way, whenever I comment on someone's blog, I kill the thread. Sometimes, I kill the blog entirely. There's a site out there called "Ithaca Has Gorges". It was created by some people I know from Cornell, and I found them through a random, boring afternoon online. Anyway, while they hadn't been online long, they'd prolific in a short span of time. I commented about how glad I was to find them online, and then nothing. Nothing which lasted for about 2 months. They finally posted again 2 weeks ago, but it still seems like they're on life support.

This is only one example, but I have had this happen many times. And all I'm trying to do is cultivate e-friendships. Listen to me, I'm like Casper, the Friendly Ghost over here!
