It's raw and pure. Would that we all got our livelihood from being just exactly who we are. That is my goal in my life. It's just plain good ol' fun to stir up obvious hornets' nests. Then you get to see who sees the obvious and predicatable human response and you get to see the people who are still so immersed in being reactive pawns of life rather than conscious beings of choice. It is a good perspective to have. I like to stir up hornets' nests, too. It's a heady feeling. The challenge is using it as an opportunity to learn more about ourselves as a species. We get to see yet again how life runs us instead of us standing in our rightful place as cause in our lives. Righteous anger/irritation feels better than guilt. Neither are taking responsibility. Both are addictions to victim and helplessness. What was I talking about? Think I tranced out there again. Damn you, Ramtha! Shit! ;) I like Robert because a lot of his success is because he doesn’t censor or edit. It’s raw and pure. Would that we all got our livelihood from being just exactly who we are.

This site IS your business. Your entire business model is "I get attention". This blog is <i>how</i> you get attention. Being inane, no fact-checking/research, and flame-baiting is HOW you get attention, but the idea that this site is just a "little place for me to talk to a few people" is almost insulting in its blatant manipulation of the truth. You're not that smooth dude. Really. Robert, the idea that this is just your “personal” blog is the silliest attempt at misdirection I’ve ever seen. This site IS your business.
