Blog Bidness: Tpyso Aer aa Wya Oof Lfie

Uh oh! "Blog Bidness" means this is a blog post about the blog.

Proceed at your own peril.

I was looking over the blog yesterday (Saturday) afternoon and noticed that the Movie Time blog that went live at 5:00 AM had a title of Cinema Sunday.

I stopped using Cinema Saturday and Cinema Sunday for my movie posts in the summer of 2024 and replaced them with Dave-El's Weekend Movie Post.

Which in turn was replaced with Movie Time as my branding for this blog's posts about movies.

When I watch a random movie on TCM, I will create a placeholder post and then eventually, weeks, months or in the case of yesterday's post, YEARS later, I will actually write the blog post.  

I watched those Nicholas Ray movies about 2 years ago when I was still using Cinema Sunday.

I wasn't paying attention that the blog post title was out of date.

And apparently so was no one else.

My son Dean will text me when I get something egregiously wrong with a post like a missing word or something is misspelled. Not today.  

I fixed the post. Not that anyone cares.  

Sometimes when I go over older posts in my blog, my heart sinks when I find some irritating and obviously bad errors.

• Leaving out the word "the".
• Mixing up "has" and "as". 
• Inexplicable word swaps. (I found a post where I meant the word "law", I wrote the word "loan".) 
• Errors that change the meaning of what I wrote. (Like meaning to write "Donald Trump is NOT a smart man" and I leave out the word "NOT".)  
• What in the hell is word "afe"? I have no damn idea but it will show up instead of "are".  
• Even as I type this, I keep having to correct "world" back to "word".  

Well, in the world (I meant "world" that time!) of blogging, tpyso aer aa wya oof lfie.

Er, excuse me.

Well, in the world of blogging, typos are a way of life.  

Over on Tom Brevoort's blog, the word "the" frequently shows up as "teh".  So who am I to judge? 

On a side note, when I wonder if anyone is paying attention, someone at blogger.com apparently is.  I had another post flagged for violating community guidelines.

The most recent Your Friday Video Link post, my love letter to Duluth MN, was flagged by Blogger.com.

I have no idea why.  

I love Duluth. 

I wanna visit Duluth.

I think I wanna live there.

I said nothing bad about Duluth.

Why, Blogger, why? Tell what I did that so wrong? 

Damn it! Tell me what I did that was so wrong? 

On the subject of paying attention, my blog post from July 29, 2018, Kimberly Guilfoyle: Fall of a LEGend continues to be the #1 blog post for several days now, outnumbering other blog post views by a margin of 4 to 1. 

To see this:

Welcome, pervs?  Their attention I got.  

I do not understand my own blog.

Now, if I really want to piss off people, tomorrow the blog will have not one but TOO... damn it! TWO posts about what a dumbass Donald Trump isn't... FUCK! I mean, IS, what a dumb ass Donald Trump IS! 

I hate Tpyso! I mean, TYPOS!!

And I am SO glad my suffering amuses you.
