“All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.” (Edmund Burke)
A good quote I picked up from the comments made on this blog entry … It took me a while to understand what was going on since it was linked to from the MSN site which had links to bLogs relating to Hurricane Katrina and this had nothing to do with that … But it raised the question of what I am doing here and what I have questioned before … The way that people happen upon this particular blog which is mine, but I am just posting my opinions, experiences … and day to day crap that some people might find interesting … I have said here that I don’t like certain things, and I have stated within these pages things that interest me and why …
This also relates to the bLog I have running on the OctaneCrew site … Not so long ago I was contacted by people that wanted certain information removed from that bLog … While I complied immediately, I didn’t have to … The result of leaving it there would not have been good for me though, so off it came … In fact, off it all came because I didn’t want to wonder about all of the prior postings on there … I now have a guideline to go by writing on that particular bLog and I stick with it … This is my personal bLog …
So posting things on my personal bLog is okay, right? Well, check out this article … Seems some companies will terminate you from employment based on things you post in your personal bLog … Is this right? Are we not allowed to have opinions? Seems if you’re out drinking at a bar with your friends and you share this information, that’s okay, but if you post it on your bLog, then you’re in big trouble …
It’s my hope that I am never in a situation that relates to my personal site here … I rant for myself and anyone else that happens on it … You might read it, or someone else might read it … Many people don’t know about it … I have hardly any comments to worry about their content … I also don’t think there needs to be some sort of ethics posted about how I deal with comments … I wouldn’t think that anyone would have to unless it were a corporate web site or something … If someone posts a comment I don’t like, I don’t see why I shouldn’t be able to remove it if I choose to … and I will …
Oh well, it’s just another post from me that shares in my frustration with the people that have the time to delve into this crap … Some people are just so touchy about things … I think there is some sort of law that says if something you’ve posted is true, no matter what the statement is, you can’t be sued for it … I hope I’m right about that …
