So....You Want to Be a Blogger??????

 So, you want to be a blogger????

 It'll be fun, they said.....

You'll never run out of material, they said...( That one is kinda true)

You'll make some money, they said....( HA!) As many of you know, I don't take advertising on purpose, and while in the past, I have had a Paypal link on the blog, I no longer do. ( I've considered it, or a Venmo, something like that, but I don't want to think you are obligated to send me a few quid.)

I literally didn't think I'd be doing this 14 years now. I figured, well, I'll do this a couple of week and that's about all.

I seriously thought I would have spent all this time and energy, research, writing a book on the English Reformation. Maybe Oliver Cromwell. Or perhaps the last Stewart Queen of England?  A book no one would even read. A book with over a thousand sources. Something I'd like to do...

No, this idiot down in Lemonville spends most of his writing time, writing a blog. Mostly on the school district I retired from. 

And the thing is, hundreds if not thousands of people read the blog every time I post...And my demographic area is surprisingly small.  

Yeah, I am going to make you think......Yeah, I'm going to make you mad.....Yeah, you get the good with the bad.....It's not like I'm going to drink whiskey with any of you...( That's a lie, I have and will again...) 

I am really surprised at the "secret readers" I have....Those who would never admit reading the blog. But read it every time it is posted. 

Anyway, unless I post an Easter special, I do not plan to blog the next several days. And if you are not doing so, you need to be reading Mitch Keeler's blog. An amazing exposé on Holy Week. Mitch should have gone to The George W. Truett School of Theology at Baylor instead of the law school....Chris Bossier and I have already discussed how great it is this morning. ( If you're reading Mitch, I tease about divinity school) But seriously folks, it is good stuff....

Thanks for reading the blog. I do not think you know how much I appreciate it. As always, any info you have, send it to me. I might not write on it at once, but I take everything sent to me seriously. 

And as always, you will be kept anonymous.

 As many of you know I am about to take a sabbatical. Yes, I'll check in.  No, do not plan to blog.... And yes, I will be across the cou...
