A Sad Message to You All

After a great deal of thought, I have decided to stop participating in the GSN Oodles program effective October 31st. I've been posting here for a little over a year (this is my 1000th post) and have become more and more discouraged with the whole GSN program.

I want to thank all of you who have been here with me for a wild and fun run. Your comments and messages have been a joy to read. I have thoroughly enjoyed this whole experience.

My last post will be the Question of the Day and Trivia on October 31st. I will leave the blog in place so that it will still be accessible by everyone to get the answers that are available.

Once again, my great thanks to all of you for being here and I hope, someday, to have another blog you may be interested in.

Rowdydog.
