Hi! I'm Carmen (Waving to everybody!)! I am stranded in the middle of Michele Bachmann territory and I'm about the only Democrat here (Whoops! I lie. My hubby is one too!). I somehow found this site a few months ago and started getting the daily e-mails. I've been reading them most every day. I'd be dying to answer the posts, but found I couldn't, because you have to join the site. Talk about frustrating!! I thought about joining, but here's the thing. I didn't know if I really wanted to join a site where you're expected to blog and stuff like that ('cause I'm not the worlds greatest writer! Can ya tell?! ). But alas, I could stand it no longer and I finally caved. I joined so I could alienate people, probably make a GYNORMOUS fool of myself and stick my foot in my mouth, all on a global scale (you all are global, right?)!
Anyhoo, that's enough about me. The reason I'm writing this, my very first diary BTW (YAY!), is because I'm kind of flummoxed about something here and it involves the ADS. You know, those pesky little bastards that keep coming back to haunt you after you've left their site. You know, for that site you don't want your husband to know you were on (No honey, I am not buying more stuff for my truck!! Geez!), so you quick slam the laptop shut so he doesn't see?! Yeah, those things. Well, I'm not a paying member (sorry, I can't afford it right now. I know, BOO!), so I still get all the ads popping up on my screen. Now, correct me if I'm wrong (which I am a lot, surprisingly), but I was under the impression that this is a progressive, Dem. oriented site and that's why this was kind of a big shocker to me.
Please follow me below the orange thingy-mac-doo-hickee and I'll tell you more about the what, why and everything else, ok?
