Another Blog Location

Well, with Yahoo 360 closing, my blog page there is most probably closing down (don't know if they are keeping such things up but inactive, or completely deleting everything). Yahoo is apparently switching over to a more-sucky type of page, of which I am really not all that impressed by. And, since Yahell hasn't learned much from their past dismal failures in regards to listening to their customers about personal pages (especially in regards to blogging), here I am!

I am going to TRY to move my previous blog posts to here. Yahoo said that I could transfer all my previous 360 blogs (since June 2006!! 3 frickin' years!!) to the 'profile' type of page, but all that moved was a very very VERY small number of initial posts. As I have said, not impressed at all.

    Hi Vladi,
    I spent the weekend copying and transferring about 40 of my Yahoo 360 blog enteries. I hope this works out because that was a LOT of frikkin work. I hope there is some sort of superheroine/female fighter audience here. Do you know if Yahoo is deep sixing the IM? That will put a crimp in roleplaying. I hope this works out for us all. I'll read your blog.

    Not that I am aware of. The program works very well.

    Of course, that probably means that they WILL close it down! (snark)

Mental Meanderings 5 of 12

Vladi's Mental Meandering Part 5 of 12 (Posted to my peer support group for our communications center) The other day, while on one of my walks, I came to an epiphany. Now, for the longest time, I have always thought that my "anti-social behavior" was because I HATED people. It was something that I feared to say out loud, without the camouflage of humor, masking it as "oh, he's just kidding ... ha ha ha ... that Vladi... what a kidder!" But, you would be wondering, quietly and in the back of your mind, if I really WAS kidding! Well... you and me both! Such a feeling of hate towards humanity, and my fellow man (and woman), really didn't seem RIGHT to me, but how else would I explain my distrust and distance that I keep myself from people. Sure, I would be ASSOCIATED with people through school, or work, or even play (theater and dart league), but while we would often use the word "FRIEND" to define our particular relation

Mental Meanderings

Published to my Peer Group with minor editing to protect the guilty: VLADI'S MENTAL MEANDERINGS Episode 2 of 12 Recently, we have seen a rise in attention given to suicide by the "MSM", due to the recent celebrity suicides. And, with all the various articles, as well as Facebook memes flying about, I have come to a realization, due to the fact that I have actually been on the "other side of the phone", as it were. Now, I am not going into a whole bunch of different things (after all, I have 10 more sessions to perform for my therapist here :P), so I will only concentrate on one, very important thing, which I believe we have been doing wrong for many many years. A MILLION. Even in the best of times, we have a hard time relating to that number. We don't see it, we don't interact with it, we don't experience it. It is a concept to us, really. Sure, we understand it mathmatically, but if we suddenly had a million of .... ummmm... anything, we wo

The Wizard's Lair is the DOWNFALL of the Superheroine in Distress Genre!

Seems of late I have been reading quite a bit about the failure of some pay sites within the community are closing down. Some are putting the blame on peer-to-peer sites in general, while others are placing the blame on The Wizard ’ s Lair in particular. Now, without knowing the financial specifics of each and every website that is closing down and/or losing money, how can anyone place any blame on any one thing in particular, or even accuse a single website, it ’ s webmaster, and it ’ s contributors for contributing to the financial decline of these sites? When I look around, I see that everyone is feeling the financial pinch, influenced largely by the (ever) rising cost of fuel, which has a cascading effect on everything from car sales, to food costs. People all over are doing everything that they can to save money, from driving less, to canceling vacations, and to eliminating discretionary expenses, of which would include memberships to websites. Is anyone looking at pointing to
