I'm sorry for "Why I Don't Like Radio West"

In the past two weeks, I have gotten 2 comments on a blog post that I wrote in 2008 called, "Why I don't like Radio West." Both of them were negative. I decided to remove that post. As I went to remove it, I saw that there were 637 hits on that post alone. Holy cow.

I'm not proud of some of the ways I chose to express my opinion on that post. They were really immature. To the anonymous poster who thought that suddenly I started to appreciate Doug Fabrizio as a person after I found out he was Mormon, I would like to say that the embarrassing truth is that I didn't really realize he was a person until after he actually emailed me back. Yeah, that's really dumb. The fact that we shared our faith in common probably helped me relate to him better, too, though I think that even as immature as I was seven years ago, I would have had a similar reaction to a non-Mormon actually emailing me back. But I guess we will never know.

The fact is this post is seven years old. I have changed, the world has changed, and Radio West has also probably changed. On our recent vacation to Utah, I spent some time listening to Doug Fabrizio's interview with Kate Kelly, and I thought he did an excellent job. He asked tough questions in a kind way.

This is more than I did on that past blog post. I was unkind because I thought it was kind of funny and I was too immature to keep my dumb opinions to myself. I didn't really think of him as a real person. I used a highly charged word/idea and used it as an insult instead of articulating myself intelligently. I am sorry for all these things.

I don't want my blog to be known for slurring a radio personality.  I'm sorry that I insulted him on this blog.

My Friend's "Oscar's Bingo"

Hey, if you're watching the Oscars, you should check out this. It's heeeeelarious.

We, sadly, are not. We only have netflix. So that's kind of sad because I like the Oscars even if they are silly and stupid. Haha. I have great memories of watching them with my dad when I was a teenager.

Facebook Hackers Suck

Awesome :::rolls eyes::: my facebook account was hacked by somebody claiming I am in London and got robbed, and I need them to wire them some money. As adventurous as that sounds, I'd prefer my first trip to England to involve less illegal activity, not to mention being obnoxious and annoying to friends and people I know.

So, if you were one of the people who "I" requested money from, I'm really sorry. Believe me, it's just as horrible for you as it is for me.

And with that, I think I'll take a six month hiatus from facebooking. See how it goes. I've done it in the past, and I'm about due for another "off cycle." Blogging on the other hand...

I mean, what, did they actually think somebody was stupid enough to believe them????
