Abusing Your Good Name

Saturday, April 14th, 2007

I am getting irritated by companies that build their name on putting forth a quality product and then try to cash in by going selling crap under the same banner.
Anyone else out there remember the John Deere “Sabre”? It was a light green riding lawn mower with the John Deere name in small print. […]

Site news: Optimized

Monday, April 9th, 2007

I’ve switched themes again.
Honestly, it’s not that big a change. I’ve just gone from a three-column layout to a four-column design. This creates more space to sell some more ads. Don’t worry. Running more ads doesn’t mean there’s less room for news. I’ll be running off at the mouth as much as I used to.
But […]

Blog news: An entrepreneurial endeavor

Monday, January 15th, 2007

In answer to several email queries, “YES.” River City T’s & Things is a project of mine and not some dude who bought a large ad. I’m always looking for ways to make some extra coin, and this seemed like a logical step. I’ve tossed together a few CafePress shops previously, and actually sold a […]

Someone buy a cluetrain ticket for Blogads

Friday, September 15th, 2006

I like the whole idea of Blogads. I’ve made some decent money with them. But I am thisclose to telling this company to shove it. I’m not pleased with how I’m being treated.

In search of a modem

Saturday, May 13th, 2006

I blame no one but myself. I made arrangements to get basic dial up access until I can secfure broadband at my trailer. I went out and bought a long phone cord and started to hook it up ,,, and discovered that there was no modem in my PC.
Then I remembered: I took the modem […]

As long as you’re shopping online anyway …

Tuesday, December 20th, 2005

As you may have noticed, I put a bunch of affiliate ads on my site overnight. They are all over to the far right side of the page, so no one has to look at them. I know I’m going to get snotty emails and comments about “selling out” from the usual suspects. I cordially […]

I’ve decided to drop prices at my two CafePress sites. It’s the lowest possible markdown, so I might make a buck or two from each sale. I’m going for volume sales here, people.There’s a site for Peoria Pundit merchandise and one for stuff with Branchly Uppercut/Fightin’ Squirrels stuff.
