Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.

There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics.

-Mark Twain

A few days ago I ran a democratic visitor opinion for “advice.” Most of the advice I received was to change the theme. It was a good push for me because I was tired of it my self, and it was loading slow even on my high speed cable internet. So I needed an excuse to work on it. All my afternoon and evening was spent that day working on the new template. I was not 100% convinced of the colours and the brightness, but I guess I needed a change, and I said, “why not?” The white might save me a lot of problems with adding pictures and stuff to my posts. It’s kind of handy and a lot of stuff I will stop worrying about.

So I listened, created something that is so unlike me, and I grew into liking it. Then people’s odd and very detailed opinions started pouring into my blog and to my email. I said to my self, “WHAT THE HELL?”

I then ran a poll. I scribbled down the answers on a piece of paper and made a 4th grade chart of the results. My handwriting rocks! (God bless Photoshop!)

It was a very spread out poll. Less than 50% of the people that voted said they really really liked it. I was like damn. Democracy sucks ass.

So I came up with a final last word. This is my land! These are my rules, and the constitution states that a site owner does whatever he/she pleases! And since I am the only citizen, and you are my tourists, I will tell you this, SHOVE YOUR OPINION DOWN YOUR THROAT! DAMMIT! You people drive me INSANO!! I LOVE YOU AS MUCH AS YOU LOVE ME BUT I am STICKING to this THEME! You made me get off my lazy ass and create a new one. Look at the power that YOU possess!

I am going back to being the ultimate dictator and I say that this theme is half ASS and I am sticking to it to piss everyone off!

I don’t know what I did or even said but I got fudge! I got fudge from my boss at the end of the day, and I was like :think: ?

So I thought about it and came up with various questions.

Q. What did I do?
A. Nothing productive.

Q. Why did I get fudge?
A. No reason, maybe I am just AWESOME.

Q. Did I share the pure chocolate fudge goodness with other people?
A. No. I don’t share fudge!

Q. How long did it take to get a bite out of it?
A. 27.5 seconds upon receiving it. That’s how long it took me to grab a plastic knife and open the box.

Q. Does my boss think I am awesome for no reason?
A. YES!

Q. Does my boss know my weakness?
A. All humans do! FUDGE!

Q. Are you jealous of me because I got fudge?
A. SUCKER!

What would you name your very own country?

I would call my country “Amal” which means hope in Arabic. It would be “ard el amal” or the “land of hope.”

However, if I wanted to be an evil dictator which I was born to be I would call it, “MONA LAND!”

If I had to have one law for my country is to live in FREEDOM and everyone’s equal. Sounds half communist eh?

I was flickering and decided to post some lovely pictures. Maybe I am turning to a softy after all, and each of us defines love in his/her own way.

However, we all need some love sometimes, right? I found these pictures and I thought they were too sweet that they need to be posted on my site.

I have been getting equal negative and positive feedback about the theme. I listened to the majority of people who advised me to change the template. So I LISTENED and I did. I really don’t know what to do anymore. Some of you REALLY like it because you got sick of the old one. Some of you REALLY don’t like it because you don’t like the brightness and think it is so unlike me. Some of you REALLY don’t care and are driving me crazier cause I can’t think anymore. :grr:

So I decided to just put this poll and no comments. Give me honest answers, and then I will decide what to do, and it may not satisfy anyone but me!
