Well, I just wanted to make sure you remember who he was. I am not letting
it bother me too much. My sinuses hurt too much for that. That is why I am
ignoring most of what he says by snipping most of it away, and one posting I
am not even bothering.

LOL! Wasn't that hard really. I have this thing about myself I can find
anything as long as it is on the internet, and it doesn't take me too long
sometimes. There are times I couldn't be bothered. It is also good use of
query phrases.:-) That is why my family always asks me to do the
searching.:-)

Oh:-(, good luck BB. Hope all will be ok. I will be thinking about you. Let
us know when you are back and OK! How about dancing? There is nothing wrong
with being 40, wish I was there again.:-)

I seem to do better without not worrying about it. There was a time I was
worried about PR, once I just started to link without worry rankings started
better on my newer sites and they got PR good also. I do try and keep the
linking slowly though and no major link action.

Yep.

Yeah, I see a lot of people still using them. Thing is they use them too
much, and wordpress will terminate blogs now for high usage of them for
artificially link ranking purposes. I have personally seen this happen to
someone. She lost 6 blogs and one had a PR of 5. Plus these blogs had a lot
of info on them. She is still Squidoo happy.

Thanks.:-)

That is true no guarantees. I would rather test it good to see if I can get
it proven, but I am not going to waste my time until someone shows some
decent proof that it may work. So right now I just use things I know that
works.:-)
