    So, if it wasn’t you, where did it appear? I think we’d all like to know. Maybe you have a secret admirer…

    What worthless dribble!
    I review Blogs,that’s what they pay me for anyhow,and I am always in search for some new talent.
    I send my reviews to over 400 Yahoo and Google groups all over the world,thereby promoting myself by promoting them,so if you know where I can find a good blog that as an original theme backed by good writing with at least an attempt at originality(see past reviews for sample)let me know!Must dash,the search continues,there’s nothing here so….

    “Sam Clemens”?

    You need to change your name to something more appropos. Perhaps “Jeff Gannon”, though I think it’s already taken.

    I don’t see more than a few blog reviews on your website and they look more like nasty personal attacks of a sort Sam Clemens/Mark Twain was far, far too much of a gentleman to perpetrate.

    Nor do I see any indication of anything that shows why you are remotely qualified to grade my first grader’s homework, let alone judge people’s writing. Things like a degree in something related to writing, or literature or journalism. Or perhaps something more basic, like a blog of your own where you do more than write about other people’s blogs, but instead give us an example of the erudite wit and wisdom you are so, so obviously capable of offering before all of us petty little people with our “dribble” blogs!

    BTW, try proofreading your wonderful prose a wee small bit. Then perhaps you’d write “a good blog that HAS an original theme backed by good writing” rather than “AS”.

    And having read Pia’s blog for about a year now, I’d say she’s done just that!

    It would be long before the bullseye will be for the best seller we are all anxiously waiting for (autographed of course)!

    It won’t be long…

About Me

I live in the South, not South Florida, a few blocks from the ocean, and two blocks from the main street. It's called Main Street. Amazes me too.

I'm from New York. I mostly lived in the Mid-Upper East Side, and the heart of the Upper West Side. It amazes me when people talk about how scared they were of Times Square in the 1970's and 1980's.

As my mother said: "know the streets, look out and you'll be fine."

What was scary was the invasion of the crack dens into "good buildings in good 'hoods." And the greedy landlords who did everything they could to get good tenants out of buildings.

I'm a Long Island girl, and proud of it now.
Then I hated everything about the suburbs. Yet somehow I lived in a few great Long Island Sound towns after high school.
