Sell Out


W WIND 5 KT. WIND WAVES 1 FOOT. W SWELL 5 FT AT 13 SECONDS.
I haven't caught too much flak for hawking the TSJ...
But I'll admit I had my reservations initially...
I mean, how can I sully the pureness of my surf blog experience...
With blatant advertisements promoting magazine sales?
Then I saw that I was only a nickel short of 3 bucks...
I'm all in baby...
Bring it on...
Diet pills, Viagra, whatever it takes...
Hell, I'm only a dollar shy of a 6 pak of High Life!

That cartoon made me smile.

I'm still at $2.95...
I'll never get that 6 pak at this rate.
word verification was "thirsty"...
Weird!

Nothing wrong with being a good enough writer to get paid for it. Selling ads on a blog is the new world order for independent writers. And the best part? Finally advertising has no power to censor you.

Love the pic Doc. She's red hot for 12 and seems she thinks you're not a half bad Dad.
And don't sweat it on the TSJ ad. I did it too and I reckon I can pay for a beer soonish too.
Cheers

hey doc,

thought you'd appreciate this, if you don't know the expression:

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Don't+Hate+The+Playa%2FPlayette+Hate+The+Game

"don't hate the player, hate the game"

don't dislike someone for their actions, consider instead the situation that causes it.

first use: Ice T: "Hate the Playa"

origin: (?) Ghandi Quote: "Hate the sin and love the sinner."

another use of Don't Hate The Playa/Playette Hate The Game, from Ice T's "Hate the Playa"

"I don't know why a player wanna hate T
I didn't choose the game, the game chose me"
