Every time I go over to read Daily Ireland, I see the banner ad for the new blog started by the paper's publisher, Máirtin Ó Muilleoir, at Blogspot called From the Balcony, A Publisher's Blog.

When I first saw that ad, I went right over to see the blog and to wish him well in a comment--which I did (on my Blogger log-in name). I told him Blogspot had given me my start about 3 years ago and I hoped he would be very happy there. I also gave him a tip about hosting his photos, including his non-showing profile photo, at Imageshack.

<--- Here, Máirtin, use this link for God's sake!



Well, if you will notice, his photo is STILL not showing, and my comment never showed up either because he didn't approve it. This annoys me a bit because I don't think there is enough good will in the world for people to go around being so arrogant that they shut out other people's good wishes for no good reason. I noticed he approved Chris Gaskin's comment, another fellow blogger on the North. But then, Chris is an avid Sinn Féin supporter. Maybe that's the difference that got his comment approved. Or maybe they are mates. I'm not faulting Chris. He is welcome to his views. Maybe Máirtin dislikes that I archive his articles. Who knows?

It's no big deal. Just petty shite. But it annoys me.

"So venceremos, beidh bua againn eigin lá eigin. Sealadaigh abú."
~Bobby Sands~
Words to live by
Mahatma Gandhi said: "Be the change you want to see in the world."
'Mother Erin'
Two divine persons in one. A mother lamenting her children in bondage. A girl ravished by the Saxon, who weeps over her stringless harp. But her young champions keep watch in the mountains, awaiting the dawn of the bright sun of Freedom. They will gather around her with pikes and swords.
~James Plunkett~
STRUMPET CITY
from 'The Stolen Child'
Come away, O human child!

To the waters and the wild

With a faery, hand in hand,

For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand.

~William Butler Yeats~
