Peace and chill to Mike

Michael Arrington is going to take some time off from blogging.  He’s not happy and disclosed some disturbing news in his blog announcement.

I’m really happy to hear that Michael is gonna grab some time to chill out, though I’d have preferred it to be under different circumstances.

Life is too short and family and happiness come first.  If you’re not happy with what you’re doing - then change things.

And as far as jealousy, bad mouthing, yellow journalism, face spitting and death threats is concerned, I really gotta quote Rodney King: “Can’t we all live together?” Crazy people need to be insulated and kept away from our rock stars.

It’s symbolic that at the moment I went to go read Michael’s full post, I noticed a Domino’s Pizza Oven baked sandwich ad.  So much for integrity.

One of the things a nuclear winter brings out - is desperation, money clutching, back stabbing, winner takes all capitalistic terror.  So completely reasonable people become vicious competitors.

I’m using this shot of Michael with Kaliya to show him in a light most people don’t see.  Michael spends a LOT of time doing really good stuff - and since he never writes about me - I can’t be kissing his ass.  I really mean it.

Best wishes to Michael.

    Anyway, Jason also had the same kind of post recently. Shocking news come together.
