Upgrading my own Word Press Blog to Blog status on Empire Avenue

{EAV_BLOG_VER:61ef762a7a338b67}

Empire Avenue for all it's fun has some interesting rules about status of Blogs and RSS feeds.  I understand they are trying to stop people from using the technology to "game" the system but I wonder if by posting this to my blog the usual way through Posterous.com will get me banned from EAv or at least my blog denied as a blog.

Even though this content is my very own, typed by my very own hands, will they consider it bad form since I used another site to post it to my Blog?  I also use this to post to my Facebook and Twitter since I have different social groups that I want to get in touch with.  Some people hate Facebook and as such don't use it.  Some hate Twitter.  Some only use AIM.  Some are on all the social media outlets.  How do I communicate with everyone that I want to without spending hours reposting things to different sites.  

I thought Ping.fm would be good for short bursts but Posterous.com allows me to email things in and have it posted.  This is a great service for someone who might only have access to email and no blogging access.  Sometimes it just saves time.

 

Well the code above is for me to get noticed by the Empire Avenue bots as an official blog that posts his own content.  Hopefully I will get the upgrade and not get any punishment for utilizing the technology I have to maximize my productivity (Or at least the illusion of productivity.) 

 

Until the next time,

Really bad experience at Tim Hortons

I am not much to want to waste my time in submitting a complaint about a restaurant that I have visited.  But the experience was so bad at the Tim Hortons I went to today that I had to send the following complaint about customer service to their website.

“Having Never been to a Tim Hortons before I thought let's try this place they seem to have a lot of them.  The experience was horrible to say the least. I felt like I was haggling with a local used car sales man just to place my order.  Then after we get our order started I am told that what I ordered isn't available.  To top it off what I changed my order to to suffice the "supervisor's" inventory, they still didn't make it correctly.  I will most likely never visit a Tim Hortons again, and will make sure I tell people in my sphere of influence about this horrible place.  I am not sure what your specialty is but customer service is not even on the list.”

What experiences have you had with Tim Hortons? Are they similar or did I just have a really bad experience?

Subject: Power of prayer - 1391

This is one of the Best prayers I think I have ever read.
PRAY THIS EVEN IF YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE IT!!
IT WILL ONLY TAKE A MINUTE.


I started not to do this,but as I read it....I understood God to say,
'You need a miracle tomorrow' so here goes...Prov. 29:25

You never know when God is going to bless you!!
Good things happen when you least expect them to !!!!!!!!


Dear Lord,

I thank You for this day, I thank You for my being able to see
and to hear this morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God
and an understanding God.  You have done so much for me and You
keep on blessing me.  Forgive me this day for everything I have
done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you.

I ask now for Your forgiveness.  Please keep me safe from all danger
and harm.  Help me to start this day with a new attitude and
plenty of gratitude.  Let me make the best of each and every day
to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.  Please broaden
my mind that I can accept all things.  Let me not whine and
whimper over things I have no control over.  And give me the best
 response when I'm pushed beyond my limits.

I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart.  Continue
to use me to do Your will.  Continue to bless me that I may be
a blessing to others.  Keep me strong that I may help the weak...
Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for

others.  I pray for those that are lost and can't find their way.
I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood..
I pray for those who don't know You intimately.
I pray for those that will delete this without sharing it with others
I pray for those that don't believe.

But I thank You that I believe that God changes people and
God changes things.  I pray for all my sisters and brothers.
For each and every family member in their households.
I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes; that they are

out of debt and all their needs are met.  I pray that every

eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance,
or situation greater than God. 

Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.

I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every

eye that sees it in Jesus' name. Amen!

If you prayed this prayer, change the number in the subject box
before forwarding the message so people can see how many
other people have done so.   God Bless ! ! ! ! !
Just repeat this phrase and see how God moves!!

God I love you and I need you, come into my heart, please.
