I only visit a few blogs and am very careful about my comments (I probably shouldn't leave this one, but as I'm about done with blogging, it shouldn't matter). A few months ago I left a silly comment at a blog (after other bloggers had also joked about similar things) the blogger went nuts all over me and even after others explained and explained they simply would not let it go. When I found out about it and the terrible things the blogger at said about me at their site, I thought it best to simply back away. Then others bloggers whom I had known for some time, and trusted, got involved and sided with the nutjob (I never asked anyone to side with me) This hurt me more than even I could imagine. I've had a hard time getting over it and visit very few blogs and leave comments anymore. I'm about ready to give it up completely, This isn't the friendly community a lot of folks make it out to be. There is a dark underbelly that picks and chooses who is their good boddy.<br /><br />Anyway, you asked, so I told you. Maybe not a good idea, but at least I goot it off my chest.farawayeyeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17578277501054242356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699262959296846764.post-88922963162669402932015-08-10T07:05:06.089-04:002015-08-10T07:05:06.089-04:00Sorry I'm so late responding to this post.

Alas, he's moved on to Jurassic World and seems to be losing interest in Star Wars.
