My friend who posts at the mom-oriented blog Charliesaurus made the mistake of following my advice and trying to promote her blog by leaving comments on various sites around the Internet.
(Don’t pretend you haven’t done the same thing. If you haven’t, viagra sale and you probably don’t have much of a readership. ;))
One of the sites she choose was MilwaukeeMoms: a division of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and Journal Communications.
By making posts that lead back to her site, discount viagra store she apparently ran afoul of a prohibition against promoting your business on MilwaukeeMoms‘ discussion groups.
Now, Charliesaurus.com is not a business. (She did have some affiliate links on her site, but she immediately removed them to try to be in compliance with MilwaukeeMom’s rules.) But that didn’t save her from a righteous tongue-lashing from sanctimonious moms pissed that she had the nerve to link to her blog from their sacred site.
What I find most amusing, is they did their ranting against her supposed self-promotion on pages filled with banner ads for J.C. Penny, Ford cars, and USA Baby.
I guess they’re too busy protecting their little community from the evils of self-promoting bloggers to notice that the only ones making money off them are the people who own the site they’re trying to protect.

One of the factors most often cited in the continuing decline of America’s inner cities is the unbridled growth of teen pregnancy.
ANd yet, cialis sales treat oddly enough, patient I’m the product of a teenage pregnancy.
But instead of dropping out of school and going to jail, I went on to college and middle class life.
I believe the thing that contributed most to my success was that my father did what people referred to back in the day as “the right thing” and married my mother.
He worked up to three jobs at a time until he could start his own business and support his family. He never complained. He never quit. He never got into trouble. He taught me how to be a good man in the only way that matters: he lived his life in front of me.
Of course, nowadays there’s no pressure on a teenaged boy who impregnates a girl to marry her.
He’s free to take off and impregnate someone else and he often does…never realizing that any fool can make a baby, but only a real man can make a family.
So, as far as I’m concerned, the problem in today’s inner city is not so much the increase in teenaged mothers as it is the marked decrease in teenaged fathers.
