When I just got out of college and was working in the state that shall not be named, man I didn’t like that state. But I digress, when I lived there I was paid a meager wage and I had a technology habit to support. I spent much time at CompUSA buying many gadgets. I ended up racking up some debt and went to get a Personal loan and having that loan to pay off rather than a bunch of credit cards really helped me reduce my debt.
Cut to 10 years later. I paid that loan off long long ago and racked up more credit card debt. I was thinking about going the route of getting one of those Cheap loans out there but I decided to do it through my credit cards instead. I used one of those convenience checks and got a small rate on this loan. I don’t think I would go for a secured loan however since I have no asset to secure it against it makes no sense to me.
But I was wondering if I could get a loan for my blog. I run it partly as a business so maybe I could get a business loan. One of the things I would like to do with the money would be to buy a custom theme from Unique Blog Designs and pay for hosting and other things. I think I should try and get a loan to improve this blog because it has potential.
At PostieCon 2007 I was asked at the last minute to jump onto the Fab Four Panel. I’m sure that many people were scratching their heads about who I was or why I was up there. You see, Tricia was supposed to be up there but she was sick that day. I would really have enjoyed listening to Tricia talk about blogging. She has one of my favorite weekly memes out there Green Thumb Sunday and she is a very good photographer and blogger. I was happy to get a chance to meet her later Saturday evening at Tao.
The folks on the panel were Karen from The Pond, Mr. Fab from Pointless Drivel and Colleen from Simple Kind of Life. Karen (#3) and Colleen (#1) are a couple of top earners for PayPerPost. Mr. Fab is a prolific writer of two blogs, hosts a radio show and sculpts with sculpey.and even posts occasionally on the IZEA blog. Me, I just run 5 blogs and some other cool stuff.
Anyway I had my new video camera with me and so I set it up and had Robyn and Peggy run it while I was on stage. I had to cut the video in half because of the size and I only got part one uploaded last night (this morning). I uploaded it to PodShow where I host my Wired Kayaker podcasts. Here is the video. Also I pumped up the sound because on the live feed people said I talked too low.
