If you're reading this, then Tim Swanson is rotting in a Turkish prison whereby his daily meals come in the form of leather shoe soles and spamburgers.
Actually, he's dead...
I've made a post everyday (except yesterday) for the past 4 months. I started blogging after I saw just how fast and easy it was to drive traffic to your site. Having an ego the size of Texas (fortunately I live in the great country of Texas) this was not a problem and in fact worked in my favor more often than not.
At the same time I also started a web hosting company to get others on the same super neat path of Zen/Ohm/42 I had discovered. Well, although that is still going, my entire life will for the foreseeable future be entirely consumed with my meatspace job in sales.
The reason I mention this is because I probably won't be blogging much (yes, horror of horrors) and I thought it would be polite and courteous to inform you as to why.
It's not your fault, it's mine.
And no, I didn't fake any of them.
Also, for those of you that would like to engage in a non-platonic relationship with me, I'm sorry to break it to you but I'm no longer interested in your inferior non-me livelihoods.
Feel free to send me any "Get Well Soon" or "I hope death wasn't too bad" cards, I mean, what is this world coming to when Monsieur Moi is no longer blogging the night away?

Well, I am sure lots of fans will miss you dearly (present company included). Enjoy your new afterlife!
Posted by: Isaac at August 5, 2003 12:21 AMwhat job in sales? where do you work for that?
Posted by: joe at August 5, 2003 12:56 AMI didn't know that people really went to work any more. Since taking up blogging professionally, I just assumed everyone else blogged all day too! Hope working does not impinge on what you are really here for -- drink and be merry!!
Posted by: Elwyn Jenkins at August 5, 2003 01:26 AMSuicide? Heh, maybe cyber regicide (I killed the king). In all reality I just have 2 seconds of free time in any given night to post something. I plan on having lots of phun up on Mt. Olympus with Hera, and I do plan on drinking to my hearts content : )
Posted by: Tim at August 5, 2003 02:26 AMI come back to this..?
Tim, you're a dick.
*shakes finger*
Posted by: Ryn at August 5, 2003 07:20 PMTim, you asshole.
Is whatever you're doing more important than finding out what happened in my sex dream??
NO!!!!!
Posted by: Michelle at August 9, 2003 04:01 AMTim, you seemed to have acquired a rather large fan club of people who have nothing better to do that read blogs all day...hehehe
anyway, it must be odd making the transition from doing basically nothing all day to working 5+ days a week selling the souls of the wicked to the daemon lord--or was it working for a utility company? I figured there wasnt much difference either way...
i've been too busy myself finishing school and getting ready for work again to bless your site with my sagaciousness. Xanga is down, so I'm bored. I hope i havent lost much...
well, anyway, good luck to you and your future endevours; and avoid those bloggers, they are an odd bunch. I hear they eat bunnies...
