Why bother to babble-on in Babylon?
It's all just about "thought cons"
So cleverly dressed up as "dot coms."

I climbed their toppling tower for free.

Well, "Whoopee."

I don't go for the soaps,
No daytime TV

(Not even much nightime TV, for me...)

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH ME?

I don't even like to type.  

I want my REAL keyboard, now, my ACCORDION!!!

I love my accordion and I hate you, internet.  

~~~~~  ~~~~~

This is my RANT after finding out this morning that even more of my websites, just recently put together, shall be deleted soon, since About.com is going to kill all Sitebuilder content, which I've used, mostly for posting crochet patterns.  Okay, so I should buy my own domain, maybe...but, you know what?  I don't really think the freebie OR the 'private' internet is "all that."  I am really getting sick of sitting here, typing for no good reason...

Well, okay, the poetry sites seem pretty good...I suppose I'll show up here, still.  I think I'm done with the crochet sites, though.  This is not the first time this has happened to me, either, and I'm SO TIRED of being chased around the babbling internet.  IT'S A REAL WASTE OF MY TIME!!!

Now you'll have more time for crochet and the "real" keyboard.   But please keep visiting the blue pages. Good venting, Accordianmaid, and I agree with you on this one, lots of free things give you exactly what you paid...nothing of any true value.
