Here I Am

I apologize to the faithful that come here looking for something from me.  I have been really busy and sometimes I have been sleeping in until as late as Four O'clock.  Among other things I am looking for a server to put up a website and move away from Blogdrive.  I think I can get a better deal.  My problem has been the veritable plethora of offers to wade through.  Many of them sound good, but they all seem to have a catch to them.  Sure, $5.95 a month might sound good, but if you only get that price by signing up for 2 years, how do you know you're even going to like the service?  And then there are domain names.  Some offer free registry with purchase, others you have to take care of that yourself.  You have a vast array of software choices, from some that have everything to some that have nothing.  I think that is going to be one of my goals this year is to get my own website going and then leave Blogdrive.  I will let you know well in advance when the change will happen.  I think it will give me more freedom and I can post the website I made from basic HTML as well as blogging and doing new things.

One of the places offers 2 domain names in its package!  This would facilitate another goal of mine, which is to re-start my t-shirt business.  I haven't done anything with it for a long time since I lost money, but I have really been itching to re-vamp it.  My original plan was to go to fairs and shows, take your picture and put it on a t-shirt or souvenir calendar or coffee mug and I think I may have given up on that one a little too soon, but I can also help organizations do fundraising, you design a shirt(s) to have your members re-sell, I make them up and sell them to you for a cheap price and you re-sell them for a profit.  Bands, radio stations, plus I have several ideas for conservative messages that I think will work, too.  I have contacted my friend's bookkeeper to get an estimate on what he would charge and was surprised to get such a cheap price.  My trouble last time was partly the paperwork end of it.

There were more things I wanted to talk to you about but I can't remember them all right now.  I just wanted to let you all know the latest and that I still am here.  One of the things I want to do is get another laptop and start working more on my writing again, which of course would include more posts here.  It's already 5 and I have not blog-hopped at all today so I have to run.  Thank you to everyone that stops by to read my words or, as in the case of the humor blog (which I have been trying to keep up with a little better), hopefully laugh at my words.

So long for now and remember, the Good Book says, "A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things."

Finally decided to poke my head out a little ...

Selfishly, I hope you don't move, as I am computer-illiterate enough to fail at most log-ins on other servers. *sigh*

p.s. to Marty: try some of our Rabbi's capabilities with Hebrew and Aramaic. Some may even know Greek, and I KNOW they all debate! *grin*

I continue to put up with the occasional annoyances of Blogger because it's free and I'm cheap ;)

I think I'd like a 30-hour day as opposed to this old worn out 24-hour one. Time for an upgrade to do all the stuff I'd like to do in a day.

Keep us posted on your impending move and the t-shirt business!

Ah, yes, the divine wisdom of The Preacher (Eccl. 10:19). It's refreshing to encounter another person who appreciates the manifold qualities of the Authorized Version. I never truly appreciated it until I learned Koine Greek. And then, I realized it's BY FAR the most accurate -- and unbiased -- translation ever. (And it is based on an unadulterated manuscript.) Those scholars in 1611 not only KNEW Greek, Aramaic and Hebrew -- they were able to *debate* in those languages! Can anyone claim that today???

On the move. Many folks are moving from server to server these days. I'm tempted myself. Best wishes -- and let us know what you find out ... some of us might be right behind you!

Blogdrive actually offers a pretty good deal on hosting this type of service. Having your own domain name adds some "prestige" to your blog ... herbthiel.com (or whatever) but you can domain map it on BD as well.

If you are unfamiliar with the code used to create new web sites, it might be a daunting move. On the other hand, you can create your own index page here and practice your skills organizing a site with your current account, most likely.

As far as Tshirts ... have you checked out Zazzle? I earned several hundred dollars one year from that site. (mental note: do it again this year)

I still have a link for zazzle on my blog ... it's the red DO NOT circle on my left side section, under the TAG board. (don't get irritated at the anti-Bush '04 shirts there)

Hope you're staying warm in Colorado.
