Waitin on a Woman…

Breaking News*********

I am currently on the east-bound train from Fort Worth to Dallas and the east-bound train in front of us, (the train I am usually on) was in an accident with a vehicle on the tracks between west irving and south Irving. No word yet on any injuries if any. Will advise as soon as I find something out.

Banned member LewP – Status check

So it’s been about 2 weeks now since I’ve been banned from Digg. Life continues to go on, the sun has continued to come out each day. By golly, I think I’m gonna make it. (sarcasm exudes). Since being banned I have joined many other social networks like Mixx and others. 

I have started a new news submission sight at Reddit, called ExDiggers. Things are going well there with 26 subscribers to the group in only 4 days of operation.

I think about all the BS that Digg makes people go through and I become aware of how glad I don’t have to be there. All of the rocket science that is the Recommendation Engine, the having to digg people’s crap all of the time. Hell as much as Sir Popper submitted, (20-30 submissions per day) I damn well needed a script just to keep up with digging his stuff. Not to mention at one time I had 1,000 friends. It was getting old fast.

Shortly after being banned from Digg, I registered again under the name of Arthur McNasty and was able to post a post telling all of my friends what happened and to see how long it would take to get banned again. I had the same icon of Alfred E. Newman from Mad Magazine fame,  and just as a comical experiment wanted to see how long before Digg and the Gestapo caught me. It took Digg a solid 48 hours to ban me again. I thought it was funny when some of my old Digg friends alerted me that I should have used a different icon so as to not tip off the Gestapo at Digg, and they didn’t know this was just an experiment on Digg banning.

Question: Has anyone ever seen Kevin Rose without a laptop? Is that piece of apparatus joined permanently to his crotch?

Just as a joke and to bring negative publicity to Digg and the unfair ways it treats it’s members, I am calling on a boycot of Digg on Halloween, October 31, 2008. Let’s scare the crap out of Digg by not even going to the site, digging or submitting anything. Let’s see what that does to their Recommendation Engine. Maybe that will allow Kevin Rose to get that laptop unstuck from his crotch.
