BLOGSPOT,GOOGLE, & THE CORPORATE WAY.....

I decided to sit down this evening to catch up on my favorite blogger, Neil Shakespeare ...... Well, wouldn't ya know.....Blogspot is down........

So, I emailed Neil...... he sez "Yeah, out intermittently all day yesterday and then for six hours last night. Now it's been down again since about 3 or 4 o'clock this afternoon. There was a note when I looked for 'Help' yesterday that said 'Some of our servers are down'....wonder how many Google has?"

Well, I don't know how many servers they have, but Christ! If their servers can handle maybe a half billion searches every day, Blogspot usage is peanuts.....no, let me re-phrase that....it ain't even like one shard of that fuckin' brown husk on the outside of a Spanish peanut that keeps gettin' stuck between your teeth and, like one o' them flimsy li'l popcorns hulls, gets stuck down like a suction cup on the back o' your fuckin' tongue, an' no matter what you do, be it hack, cough, choke, or dig yer finger 'way back there, hopin' to dislodge it, at the same time cursin' the fact that you cut your fingernails just that morning, an'.........

....never mind......

As I wuz gonna say......Page & Brin, since their billions are all locked up & the bean-counters rule the Google roost, and now being a publicly-held company, in the best interest of their shareholders (themselves first and foremost, still holding the lion's share of the stock), upon the recommendation of the Board of Directors (comprised, of course, by representatives of the banks and brokerages that underwrote their IPO and hold the next largest blocks of stock as their reward, at a substantially reduced price), and with the Almighty Bottom Line as their beacon and guiding light,.......

....sorry again.......

I have it on good authority that a determination was made, recognizing that they would be able to increase their EPS for the forward-looking quarter by as much as $0.004 per common share, excluding one-time charges, fully- diluted, from a non-GAAP standpoint, 3% above Wall Street analysts' expectations...........

....yada, yada, yada.......

They outsourced the administration and day-to-day operations of the Blogspot unit to Emil's Axle-greasing, Tires, and IT Technology, LLC (OTC:BB Listing EATIT), a recent startup venture located in the tech-rich Chippewa River Valley of Voidsville.
