It's been a long, long time.

Yes, I know that it has been almost 2 years since I blogged last.

I hadn't posted in a while because I lost access to the blog.

I lost access to the blog because I could not remember which password I used when I created it.

I could not get the old password sent to me because I had changed ISPS and email addresses during the time I wasn't blogging and the old password was being sent to the old email address.

I could not change the email address because I could not get into the blog.

There are no live people at Google or Blogger who could help. There are a lot of people who are in the same boat, apparently. Several of them have posted at Blogger's help forum.

And how did i get back in? Very accidentally.

My friend, Lynn Magnusson has started a blog about appraising and arts and antiques (at http://artantiquesappraisal.blogspot.com/. Very nice blog.) I went to check it out and posted a comment. Before the comment could go up it asked me whether I belonged to Blogger or LiveJournal or a few other groups. I put in my old email address and took a wild-assed guess at an old password I used to use. I got in!

Then I decided to come here to see if I could post and I could. Mirabile dictu! Hosannas! Holy Crap!

With any luck I can get in again shortly and update all two of you who read this as to what I've been doing.

wow, cool!
I'm home with a cold, randomly checking old bookmarked items and I took a chance on your link - I'm glad you are well!

I ran across tour blog about 18 mos ago when I was getting ready to get rid of some endometrial cancer via hysterectomy. You made the whole thing seem, well, maybe not fun but doable, and it went off with no trouble and everything is so far so good.

But mostly, I just really found your writing really interesting.

Thanks!

So I did it -- bought myself a [url=http://www.ordio.com.au/products/Fatman-iTube-Red%252di-with-Speakers.html]Fatman iTube Red[/url] and I've got to say I am an extremely happy customer. I actually listened to one at a friend's house several months back and just couldn't get that quality out of my head because it blew me away. I searched online everywhere I could think of for a great deal and finally found it at [url=http://www.ordio.com.au]Ordio[/url] in Westfield Bondi Junction. I rang them first and asked a bunch of questions and everything was answered to my satisfaction so I went ahead and bought it. Shipping was surprisingly fast. Everything was as it should be. I'm pretty darn happy and I'm playing it right now. Not sure if they ship outside of Australia but you won't be sorry if they do.

I am crazy happy about it...

The organization offers a single certain [url=http://nhommuadeal.com/thoi-trang.html]nhom mua gia re[/url] for each working day in every of the marketplaces it serves. The Groupon operates as an assurance agreement utilizing ThePoint's technique: if a particular number of males and females signal up for the supply, then the provide turns into supplied to all if the predetermined minimal is not fulfilled, no a single distinct gets the deal that working day. This lowers threat for retailers, who can treat the price reduction codes as volume reductions as nicely as revenue marketing and advertising tools. Groupon can make income by trying to keep roughly fifty % the money the buyer pays for the coupon.

For case in point, an $eighty massage could be attained by the buyer for $forty by signifies of Groupon, and then Groupon and the retailer would break up the $40. That is, the retailer delivers a therapeutic massage valued at $eighty and gets about $twenty from Groupon for it (under a fifty%/fifty% split). Or, if $240 really really worth of home portray vendors is attained by the client for $fifty via Groupon, then the business receives $25 and Groupon retains $twenty 5. The customer will get the massage, or the home portray services, in these examples, from the retailer for which they to begin with compensated $forty (or $fifty) to Groupon. There are specified businesses to which Groupon originally did not source its vendors, these kinds of as having images ranges and strip golf equipment however, capturing ranges have been highlighted on Groupon.

Not like labeled marketing and advertising, the service provider does not shell out out any upfront value to participate: Groupon collects personalized details from completely ready consumers and then contacts only individuals consumers, largely by daily electronic mail, who may well possibly be intrigued in a distinctive products or services.

Groupon employs a huge variety of copywriters who draft descriptions for the offers showcased by e-mail and on the web site. Groupon's promoting text for the 'deals' has been observed as a contributing element to the recognition of the site, showcasing a distinctive combine of complete fact-examining and witty humor.

Owing to Groupon's market place spot presently getting mostly composed of lady consumers, the bargains are frequently focused on the properly currently being, overall health and attractiveness marketplaces.

There are prospective issues with the enterprise product. For occasion, a profitable offer could temporarily swamp a modest company with as well several consumers, jeopardizing a probability that customers will be dissatisfied, or that there will not be sufficient remedy to meet up with the demand from clients. Hole, a enormous garments retailer, was capable to control 445,000 price reduction codes in a nationwide provide (even however it knowledgeable server problems at one position), but a scaled-down sized organization could turn into all of a unexpected flooded with clients. A solitary espresso keep in Portland, Oregon struggled with an increase in clients for three months, when it provided around to one particular,000 Groupons on the a solitary day it was offered, according to one report. In reaction to equal troubles, Groupon officers stage out that 'deal' subscriptions ought to be capped in advance to a realistic variety.
