		<description>Wow, I thought maybe I would be among the first to comment because I just got this email syndication notice about the article but when I came to leave a few words, I was like, WHAT?  126 comments already?

Wow.  You sure have a vibrant community here, I should say!

Well, this was a very interesting article because it promotes the idea of bringing out other aspects of our personality that we might be afraid to show because the dominant parts of ourselves won&#039;t allow it.  Funny you should mention about multiple personalities.  I think we are all multiples without admitting it is so.

For instance, I&#039;m a very nice, easy to get along with guy.  But i also have a stronger side of me that rears its ugly head from time to time.  So I guess I&#039;m a multiple too!  

There&#039;s another side of me that dreams of walking out on stage in front of thousands and waving to them as if I was a very famous speaker, author.  I imagine myself doing that all the time.  What of that personality?  Will that come out too?

Fascinating article!!

		<description>@ John - I&#039;m happy you got a kick out of that, and you had mentioned starting at the end before, a long while back - it does work, you know.  I&#039;d come across it first on a Covey course (begin with the end in mind) and when you mentioned it last time, I sat down to try it again.  You do that, and you end up with a nice convenient list of tasks.

@ James - if you look like Tyler Durden, you have nothing to fear then, because I look more like &quot;The Narrator&quot; (Edward Norton&#039;s character) and that means you can feel free to say and do whatever you like - it will all be blamed on me!  :)

		<description>@ Amy - He always blames me when something breaks.  I think the most frequently asked question around here is. &quot;Were you playing with this before this happened?&quot;

@ Amy again - A chat room would be cool. I&#039;ll see what I can do.  

@ Harry - Bro? *points up* Amy thinks a chat room would be cool. 

@ Kelly - Don&#039;t these friggin&#039; blogs change their own damned time? What is this! I&#039;m outraged! I&#039;m sending WP a complaint letter! Right after I send Typepad a letter about how much I dislike their non-user-friendly blog platform!

By the way, one of our clients just made the switch from Typepad to WP. I had to go in and fiddle around with her Typepad blog for a bit. Trust me, you&#039;d find WP so simplistic to use after the numerous tabs, hoops and pages that had to be sifted through. *nudge nudge*

@ All - I am not to blame for the behaviour of our plugins. I swear. I didn&#039;t do it.

Also, if you&#039;ve written catchy titles and all your posts are good, then which post it pulls is irrelevant. Getting people to read other posts besides your latest is important.

@ Kelly again - We&#039;ve frequently heard from others that our comment section is a blogger&#039;s dream and are often asked how we do it. So, yes, it has its charms and I love the crowd. 

That said, we did have someone say, &quot;I made the mistake of subscribing to comments...&quot; and I thought to myself, &quot;Oh. Calling that a mistake isn&#039;t good.&quot;  Damned if you do, damned if you don&#039;t. 

But agreed. I think I&#039;ll change from a round-ring snaffle to a D-ring. A gentle tug back never hurt anyone and performance is enhanced with kind tweaking of the reins.

I&#039;m also interested in your insightful comment regarding my post. So please, do share.

@ John - Fight Club is one of my favorite movies.  And I look more like Tyler Durden than the guy in the pic. Unfortunately. Does that mean I get to say cool things and get away with it, though?

Good point about the manager/employee switch. Executive role playing.</description>

		<description>@harry - think this one is by fault. I gave fukko... errr Janes the thrown. So I apologize. I will crown him privately next time. As a related aside, a chat room would be very cool.

		<description>@Kelly: What can I say? The same thing happened to me. I went away for 20 minutes or so and they were all out of control. It would have been easier to herd cats than try to get them all back on track.

Usually when something like this happens, we conveniently blame Fukko the Clown. But in this case we can give Fukko a break and blame James for everything (including the slightly off time stamp). :)</description>

		<description>Hey, I&#039;m on blogger, so if they give you any grief about typepad, don&#039;t feel too alone. I&#039;ll definitely keep you on my reading list, and I promise not to witchify your blog. :-)

		<description>Thanks! *Shameless plug* Feel free to subscribe, Stumble, etc. Lots of good stuff on the way over at the MCE Blog.

Yes, until lately I think this was the only place the silly plug-in did work completely for me. I still want it, though, and am totally indignant that I can&#039;t have it on (yes she dares to mention it again) TypePad. 

Alas, the Irishwoman must to bed. St. Paddy has left the building.

Until later,

Kelly

P.S. (Oh I love a good postscript...) Why&#039;s MWP on CST, when neither of you gentlemen are? Did somebody forget to spring forward?

Picky, picky...

		<description>Hmm... guess my theory&#039;s out the window then So, as Emily Litella on SNL would say, never-mind. ;-)  It doesn&#039;t work right on any blog I comment on that uses it, so I lack a proper control group. :-) Your blog is very cool, btw.
