FREE Simple-ology Blogging Course

Hello my fellow bloggers. As one of the first bloggers on the net (before there even were blogs), I have posted my own advice for bloggers in the past. Well, fellow blogger Todd McKeever tipped me off to a free online course on blogging from the folks at Simple-ology, but for it to be free, you have to paste some code on your site. So here is my required posting: I’m evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they’re letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.It covers: The best blogging techniques. How to get traffic to your blog. How to turn your blog into money. I’ll let you know what I think once I’ve had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it’s still free. I apologize for some of the language on the site linked above. (Here on Kidologist.com we would prefer to say “kick bumbee” for something really really good.) But I will let you know in an update what I think of the course – whether it truly kicks bumbee, or kicks the can.UPDATE: I never could get past…

My Little Magicians Assistant

Yesterday Luke and I got to go on one of our “adventures.” (Every time we leave the house it is an “adventure” – Luke lights up and grabs his coat if we say “wanna go on an adventure?”) The adventure this time wasn’t shopping errands or out to eat but to visit the 3rd grade glass of one of my employees (her daughter that is!) to do a little last-day-of-school-before-Christmas party entertainment. After checking in to the office for our visitor stickers we were off! They said to put the sticker somewhere prominent! As you can see by these pictures taken by my bookkeeper, Patti, Luke never left my side! He seemed a little overwhelmed by all the kids. I hope he doesn’t figure out all my secrets from the close up spot! Well, at least if he figures them out, he can’t tell anyone! It felt funny to have him clinging to me the entire time. Eventually he found the courage to venture within ten feet of me. I actually can’t wait until he gets older and officially be my stage assistant… poor Luke will be levitated, cut in half, vanished and (hopefully) reappeared when the time comes. Until…

A Pirate on the Side of the Road

Saw my first Veggie Pirate Movie ad today since I went to the early screening. I was able to grab my camera and snap this out the passenger window while at a red light: Since I first announced this film was coming I’ve been curious how the marketing would be. I get their e-mails regularly and I , but I’m curious how the general public will find out about the movie since Universal is underwriting and marketing it. It is only a few weeks away… I hope I see more promotion. It really is a great film with a fantastic message. HOW MUCH ADVERTISING HAVE YOU SEEN? Where? I do encourage you to see it in theaters. Christians whine a lot about the poor morals of films, and then when secular film production companies come out with something wholesome and truly good entertainment, we tend to yawn or wait until DVD. If that is the case, we really have no right to complain when the world “spices” things up to grow their audience. Let’s show them we’ll come out for good wholesome fun. And it’s not like it is a mercy viewing, it really is a very fun and entertaining movie!…
