1. You know, blind links are the path to nowhere. Personally, I wont open them
I used to be on dial-up and unless I knew what I was getting into, I wouldn't do it. Now that I've got high speed, I don't because I don't know what I'm loading onto my computer.

Either way, blind link isn't helpful. At least identify what you're posting.

5. Here it is


CLEARWATER, Fla. - Dallas Green couldn't hold back the tears from behind his dark, wire-rimmed sunglasses.

The no-nonsense manager who led the Philadelphia Phillies to their first World Series title in 1980 choked up a few times as he talked about the shooting death of his nine-year-old granddaughter.

"You know, I'm supposed to be a tough sucker," Green said Wednesday, "but I'm not tough when it comes to this."

Standing behind a small practice field at the Phillies' spring training complex, Green spoke to reporters for nearly 20 minutes. He thanked everyone for their support, apologized for not returning phone calls and reflected on the memory of the little girl he called his "Princess."

Christina-Taylor Green was among six people killed in a shooting rampage on Jan. 8 in Tucson, Ariz., outside a supermarket where a neighbor had taken her to meet Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, who was critically wounded.

7. I feel bad that my link
caused problems. I was upset reading the article. Guess I shouldn't react here - others do but I guess that is okay.
