Google Owes Me $42.37

A Neglected Blog – A Remake of Sorts
It has been 1004 days since I last posted on this blog. I had left this blog for dead. I remember being frustrated that I had created a blog with a name where everyone expected to learn about adsense when it in fact was just my journey learning about adsense. Since the last post in [...]
Link is to Ganon as I am to Google (Mortal Enemies)
The first post I ever wrote was “I am Free Because I am a Blogger” and back in the day it was a liberating feeling. But I was so unaware as to how I was not going to be free. Because of my original blog plan (and name) I was shackled to the topic of [...]
Joel Comm Can Eat at My Blog For Free Anytime
You know when you go to a great restaurant, and they have pictures of the celebs that have dined at their establishment. I always imagine, the owner coming out and walking up to the celeb and saying: “Ahh, Mr Deniro, your meal is on the house. Please sit down and enjoy this private booth. Our [...]
What Does Robert Burns, Google Adsense, Cherry Cola, and Joel Have in Common

This morning I was reading a post on BloggerNoob.com called Don’t let PR hold you down. It got me thinking about my [...]
I hate…
I feel to depressed to post anything. I am full of anger, of hate. I say that I am too depressed to post anything, and yet here I am…posting. . Eventually I’ll get over it… . Actually maybe I’ll get over it now. I just had a look at my Google Adsense stats and found [...]

Have a look at the screenshot below and you [...]

I am Free Because I am a Blogger…
I have now stepped into the blogoshpere. That sounds pretty stupid for the first line of my first blog.I even hate that word: “blogosphere” It sounds like a word that was cooked up to be used in a 70’s Sci-Fi movie starring Charlton Heston. So, enough about my hatred of the word Blogoshpere and my [...]
