April 2, By Kristia 3 Comments

When I fired up my computer this morning, MSN.com reminded me that it was April Fool’s Day. I was very grateful, because I am usually the one that falls for an April Fool’s joke. But not today, I was on alert. So when my husband called me while he was on his way to work and said, “did you hear that Rush Limbaugh is moving to New Zealand?”. I was quickly able to remind him what day it was and then we were both bummed…but I digress…

    I like Rush Limbaugh a lot and find your comment rude. I do not read your sight to hear your politics and you should not assume everyone believes the same way you do.

    Anonymous – I’m sorry to upset you, but I doubt my comment/joke would really offend Rush. What did I say that reflected my politics?? You might be surprised by what they are. I would NEVER assume everyone believes the same way as I do, that would make for a very boring world and blogoshpere.

    Thanks for you comment!!

    Oh boy, I thought your Rush comment was funny.

    Anyway, I totally fell for ProBlogger’s announcement that they were being bought by Google. And Punch Debt in the Face got me with the Rick Astley link on Twitter. I thought I was on alert but still got punked.

    And thanks for the mention, appreciate it!
