Mere hours after receiving notice from him that Google would not like my blog post (as humorous as it was) I did in fact receive the exact same email he mentioned in his comment, insisting that I cease and desist my breach of their Terms and Conditions.
What breach was this you ask?
Well, supposedly someone whose panties are on way too tight over at Google Adsense thought my post about becoming a millionaire from click-thru’s was serious. I was in breach by encouraging people to click the ads on my page …
I’m still not quite sure I get this.
Aren’t the ads there as encouragements? I mean, isn’t their sole purpose to be clicked upon? Not because of their meaningful content, but simply because if enough people click, x% of them will purchase something making it all worthwhile? Wasn’t I helping that by joking about the several billion clicks it was going to take to make me a millionaire?
Well apparently not – so I have removed all mention of clicking the ads.

Sorry Google Adsense, please accept my apologies, and my support for your candidacy in ’08.

**Despite the amazing resemblance, this man is not me – let it be known**

That’s right, it is that time of year again, and I am yet a year older.
I’m beginning to think (as I gain the wisdom that comes only with age) that perhaps it is possible that I’m aging at the same rate all 365.25 days of the year, and am not actually aging all of those days at once, on the spot, on my so called birth-day.

I have been wrong before…

In the words of a famous hobbit -
“Haaaahppy Beeeeerthday!”
