So i’ve been MIA lately, except for blogging on here every few days. Reason is because, well one word, WIRED haha. No further comment lol. Anyway i’ve had a ton on my mind even though life is on cruise control right now, just taking it easy and it’s going pretty good for me.

So what’s been on MK’s mind? Meh, i’m upset with how politicians are acting, nothing new there, and I don’t want to dive into detail, in all honesty those worth electing are not running for presidency so what’s the point right? But as a good friend once said, ‘we owe it to ourselves to vote’ at least choose the lesser of both evils sort of thing.

Designer Jeans rock. What can i say, women should really take care of themselves, and most ‘mothers’ and so on forget to buy themselves some nice stuff from time to time, they should. A nice hot pair of jeans shorts like those, damn. Do it! Go buy yourself some now. That’s a fucking order. And guys, seriously, nice button up shirts are your friend, loose baggy tshirts are ok around the house, stop wearing them to the cafe and what not. Just stop.

5fifths image hosting rocks even though it’s not even finished yet?

Anil Dash rocks. And the anil dash post went sour because HaRRo was born with a stick up his ass (mental note to self; ban HaRRo’s IP :P).

Matt is doing better now, his condition is stable and Doctors say he’ll make a full recovery.

The BlackHat SEO Forum will be active again, soon, with a twist though, less BH SEO related more something else, so yeah, keep an eye out for it

Guys, go to Trendy Shoppes now, and buy your girl something nice, now. Oh and buy some damn Litter Bins for your car while you’re at it!

A domains for sale search engine is in the works, damn, this will DEF shake the domain industry and get buyers more active, what a great idea too, i’ll link you once I get notified that it’s up and running, there’s also a new Domain Auction live Chat application/site in the works, i’ll be sure to let you guys know about that.

HOT NEW BLOG CMS coming real soon, no database required, thousands of themes, drag and drop styling, super simple to use and SEO pimpified. It, will, rock. Period.

Muffin is still on my mind…

Yeah, some of you are that clueless, but it’s ok, I’ll educate you real quick. Anil Dash is probably one of the greatest bloggers of all time, second greatest, ok maybe third, but he is, in my personal opinion one of the greats. Now sure, some of his posts are all business oriented and a way to market some of sixaparts products, but when you read his personal blog, you automatically know this guy is a hardcore blogger, simple as that.

Now, Anil has been blogging for almost a freaking decade, that’s a long ass time to be blogging, part of the reason why he’s up there with the best, shit 10 years ago I was surfing all day and riding my motorbike wondering how i’m going to nab my dads credit card this time. So what is this all about, really it’s a reply to one of Anil’s tweets. No shit, no I know he could care less about this, so I’ll go on and not even direct any of it at him personally, just my thoughts on this comment;

Dressed up and looking sharp, went to a great restaurant with good friends. Being grown up beats the *hell* out of being young and broke. 07:55 PM September 06, 2008 from web

Ok, let me just state something real quick, dressing up, and looking sharp to go out with good friends is truly something I love to do, heck who doesn’t right? So that’s obviously not what bothers me with Anil’s tweet (which I know is his own personal opinion and should not bother me, though it does, so as it’s a public tweet, and probably read by tons who I doubt had the nuggets to comment on, I shall, because to be honest, yeah i’ve been there and know how some would feel).

What bugs me is the next part that states; Being grown up beats the *hell* out of being young and broke. Now before some of you start with the ‘oh im so fucking smart’ comment, and point out that anil was most likely referring to a state he was in before ‘growing up, making money and what not’ let me point out that to many, it does not read like that. Rub it in their faces, something I do sometimes but not like that I guess.

Anil, no hard feelings, I’m just putting this out there for some of my forum members to comment on rather than crowed up the prvt sections with Anil did this and Anil did that, seriously, take it out on here, because I’ll promise you he’ll see this, he’s good like that.

Anil is a cool guy, cool friend, says it how it is, and lives in New York too now, so it’s all cool. I just think somewhat public figures, like Anil, should watch some of the things they say, hey im not getting in his face about what he’s free to say and not say, just giving ‘my’ opinion, which you’re all welcome to drill holes in if you like I mean the comment above is not the same thing as reviewing Yahoos new mailing servers or whatever the heck it was anil was doing there, think he just doesn’t like Canadians that much I can’t blame him tbh!

I’ve told Jeremy, Marcus and HaRRo about this, as well as others, when you have a large following online, watch how you go about it, show that much respect to the people that keep your jobs alive, to those that respect you and give you a reason to blog and be online. Anil, you’re a stand up sort of guy, wicked personality and an all round nifty blogger, i just had to get some of those guys out the ‘anil dash does it again’ threads
