Oh that's not the hard part, but it's not the easy part.

The hard part is dealing with the idjits who either think they know better than you do, don't understand your parameters, so give wrong opinions.

Then there are the stalkers, we have one he pops up from time to time, and normally posts highly offensive comments, that are designed to attempt to entrap me into saying something hypocritical that will then open me up to ridicule. It might be successful to, if he wasn't so transparent in his attempts.

Of course my wife who also has the same blog is perfection to the same stalker, I suspect she's the one being stalked, and I'm getting the flak, so he can in his mind run in and save her from my evil and despicable ways after proving me a hypocrite (I mean I've lived with her for seven years, I think she knows most of my evil and despicable ways by now and hasn't run away screaming). Fortunately we moderate comments so most of his are removed prior to publication, but there are a few that still get through.

Ah, things to look forward to eh Met...?

LOL--thought abut putting up a webcam over the compound...it would put the Trailer Park Boys to shame.

Yeah, Neph--keeping it up to date will be tough as the season progresses, which is kind of a catch-22 since the whole idea is to chronicle the season as it happens.

I'll have to be a bit low key on my blog because of business reasons but I'm available for private idjit control consultation.

Yeah that's our problem too, not that we're doing it for business reasons, but having 100+ registered followers (and who knows how many unregistered), means that I've got to limit my idjit control mechanisms, so as not to alienate those followers.

I'll still be paying attention, you might have a strategy that I can use.

The best way to deal with fing idjits is to have a zero tolerance stance concerning them. I have a list of them by the CC machine here who are not allowed to do business with me. We put Seinfeld's Soup Nazi to shame here. Because we can.

Seen a lot of great white sportfishers here coming around treating the hired help like their own personal servants. That never seems to work out well for them. My crew is invaluable to me and nobody treats them badly and continues to be allowed to do business here.
