Greetings to all,

I've decided that my Rants need more structure than I've been giving them. I've also decided to delete all my old Rants and just start over on them. I've decided quite a few things actually. Some of which will be discussed here and others that won't. Also, if you people don't start leaving me your views on my Rants, I'm just gonna start making them private. That means no one but me will see them. Sure, every once in a while I'll make on public if that happens, but just to see if people will comment. So the more comments I get, the more public Rants you get, deal? Now, I understand that you might not have an account on all the sites I do, but you can always email me and I'll put your email in its own Rant unless you request me not to.

Anyway, the one question I seem to get a lot recently is, "Are you going to stay with your wife?" Well, here is the final answer to that specific inquiry: No, there is nothing in this world or the next that will convince me to stay with her, now quit asking. I'm actually getting sick of everyone asking that, or anything else about my divorce. From now on, if I don't mention it, don't talk about it, ok? If you do insist on talking about it, expect to be removed from my circle of friends and blocked. There are a select few that I talk to it about, and I just try to avoid the topic with everyone else.

Now, this Rant is on all the sites that I can post Rants on, and after this, there will be different type topics discussed on different sites, don't bring up a topic from LC on my dA page or expect to be removed from my circle of friends and blocked. This is a break down of the topics and sites that they are on:

LC- Mustang History and Current Projects.
dA-. Poetry and other art type stuff.
Myspace- Religion and Politics.
Yahoo 360- Random Polls.
LJ- Advice Column
Blogger-Haven't decided yet, ideas are welcome
Xanga- Morality.
Buzznet- Family.

Ask me for the addresses, and feel free to visit all these sites and leave me your opinion. Also, if you know of a topic that I haven't Ranted on that you would like to see my point of view, let me know and I'll Rant about it.

Now, I also notice that I have a lot of friends on these sites that I don't talk to and that make no effort to talk to me. I will be removing these "friends" as I go through my lists to find those that I talk to and those that are important to me.

I'm also going to set up an account with a site (could be one I already have an account with, or could be a completely different one, I dunno yet) that I will only give the address to those I trust the most, and if you ask for the address, you have just ensured that you will NEVER, I repeat, NEVER get access to it. It will be where I discuss all topics with my closest and most trusted friends. They will be part of my "inner circle" They will know who they are, and I trust them to not let anyone else have the address. If I find my trust in them has been misplaced, they'll be removed from my life. Due to recent events in my life, I don't tolerate even the smallest lie anymore.

Also, if I don't add you as a friend, don't let that stop you from commenting on my Rants, I make it so that anyone can comment on them if the site allows it. And if you bitch about me not adding you as a friend, then you will be blocked, no exceptions.

If there is a case of me removing a friend or a member of my inner circle, I will give them an explanation if they so request, but if they do not request, I'm not gonna waste my time explaining it to them.

Next, if I don't post on a site for some time, it's because I don't have anything new to say about the topics associated with those sites. So don't bitch about me ignoring one site in favor of others.

Also, I will have pictures on these site, so if I find out you save them without my permission, you will be blocked. For the most part, I give permission to save my pictures, if they are accessible by everyone, but any that are locked and accessible to only a selected group, do not save them without asking me.

Now, I'm sure that I'm gonna get hate mail from some people, but that goes with the territory. As long as the person(s) writing the hate mail don't violate the simple rules that I have, I won't block them and might even respond to them, just depends on my mood. But breaking any of my rules is cause for blocking.

Here's a quick breakdown of the things that will get you blocked, and possibly cause me to take further actions against you (such as legal action); just to be clear, these are things you should NOT do:

1)Ask to be added as a friend
2)Bitch about not getting added as a friend
3)Harass me
4)Threaten me or my family (this will be cause for legal action)
5)Stalk me or my family (also cause for legal action)
6)Ask to be in my "inner circle"
7)Steal my pictures
8)Discuss a topic from one site on a different site (i.e. Discussing Religion on LC is a nono).

I believe that's all, if I can think of anything else, I'll post another P.S.R. (Public Service Rant).
