I dare you. I double dare you. Muhahahaha!<BR/><BR/>Not everyone needs to wants to talk about it. Some need to but don't want to. Some don't need to but want to. Either way, it's a matter of choice. So no big deal.<BR/><BR/>(Insert clever photoshopped picture of Alan Greenspan playing Monopoly with Mohamma Taha here.)-suitepotato-https://www.blogger.com/profile/04567987879881511630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11425059.post-83875933345272614862009-01-05T09:40:00.000-05:002009-01-05T09:40:00.000-05:00Anon,Your analogies are faulty.

My personal greetings and well-wishing to a couple in sheva berachos, or my visiting a sick person in a hospital are private affairs between myself and the person with whom I'm talking. My blog, OTOH, is a public forum. What's more, it's my forum for me to discuss the issues that I would prefer to speak about in the manner in which I prefer to speak about them -- and in my case, I prefer not to speak when what I have to say will offer no new insight or be substantially different than what others are saying. Firstly, it's just not the way I like to write and secondly, it doesn't offer my readers any real reason to come to my blog. I want them to come here because they feel that they are getting something different here. If all I'm offering is some bland "I hope we win" or the same thing that everyone else is saying, then there is no reason to come here.<BR/><BR/>In addition, I think you may be overestimating the popularity of my blog. There are blogs out there that are far more popular than mine. :)<BR/><BR/>As for what I *want* to say -- there are plenty of things I want to say on a variety of different topics -- but, as mentioned above, not all topics get on my blog. I'm highly interested in economics and board game design too -- but I choose not to discuss them here. Heck, it took me over two years to bring up photography -- a hobby that I've had for longer than this blog!<BR/><BR/><BR/>The WolfBrooklynWolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03994285019137108636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11425059.post-62488527581088395992009-01-05T09:39:00.000-05:002009-01-05T09:39:00.000-05:00I think the post says how Wolf feels about the war...I think the post says how Wolf feels about the war.

It is apparent that by having a poplular blog you are, willy-nilly, already in the sphere in which, when such a major development takes place, your comment is relevant.<BR/><BR/>By analogy, if you happened to be in a house where a sheva brachos was taking place, would you decide not to congratulate the couple because other people have done so much better than you can, and you have nothing to add? In a hospital, would you refrain from wishing a sick person a refuah shleimah because there is already a squad of people reciting Tehillim?<BR/><BR/>Besides which, don't you *want* to say something, an expression of the feelings of your heart?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11425059.post-81470462938506585432009-01-04T22:14:00.000-05:002009-01-04T22:14:00.000-05:00Bravo!Very, very well said.I was worried about jus...Bravo!<BR/>Very, <B>very</B> well said.<BR/>I was worried about just such feedback on my own blog, and now, if any comes, I will send them directly to your post!G6https://www.blogger.com/profile/15932781801654313054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11425059.post-3107316608758136562009-01-04T21:28:00.000-05:002009-01-04T21:28:00.000-05:00Ditto.

The "nothing to add" is the most common feeling.Ezziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12494592434522239195noreply@blogger.com
