Maybe I am in a different time zone altogether or I don`t have time to check every hour and minute to see if b5media is down.
My .02 cents.. Ignore the brickheads.

Cowboy’s post was a surprisingly easy read for me. Whenever I get called out in the blogosphere, it’s always caused some pretty strong reaction on my part. Generally when I get taken to task its because I’ve done something wrong or something embarassing and reading about it brings all those emotions back to the surface again. I usually splutter about it for a day and every time I think about it I get that hot flush running up the back of my neck and I can’t stop thinking about how to respond.

That didn’t occur at all with Cowboy’s post. It was an almost dispassionate letdown. That tells me that he doesn’t have a point, or at least not one with enough truth in it to cause any reaction on my part. The only part of his post that even remotely concerns me is the use of the word splog. Attacking someone’s downtime is the work of a rank amateur. It’s the tired old tactic of pretending that foresight is as common as hindsight. Standing on the corner pointing and jeering ‘didn’t you see that coming? Huh? You shoulda’ is…what…childish? A suitable word escapes me at the moment.

And then to purport to know Darren yet fail to understand why he hasn’t responded to the post during the wee hours of Darren’s morning? No…perhaps childish is the right word.

I’m glad this turned out the way it did. Cowboy’s failure to elicit a predictable emotional response from me shows that he’s way off the mark. I guess this is backwards confirmation.

Ignore them. Stay open. Be brave. Your supporters will soon outnumber your detractors.
