I really need to look up where the whole on the wagon/off the wagon thing comes from when talking about addiction.  Ok well I did – thanks Ask Yahoo – here is the origin.  Now I fell off the wagon concerning my aforementioned obsessive behavior with the AZB forum.  Seems I am still popular there with not one but TWO threads about me going in the main forum.  It's gratifying to see that I seem to have a lot of people who want to see me go back.  And the usual antagonists posted up their usual drivel.  And I spent way too much time today checking those threads.

This time though I didn't rise to the bait – well not really but sort of.  I did use Karen's account to clear up a few misconceptions in private to the people who posted them.  And I called a few folks to clear the air which really felt good.

I don't plan to go back to posting on AZB.  Right now we are getting more cases done than ever.  I think I have responded to more emails this month and especially this week than I have all year.  Being committed to being "right" is a major time and energy drain.  It's actually a lot more fun to just get stuff done and feel relieved and peaceful instead of the getting the short adrenaline boost from telling someone off.

I am glad to know that some folks are reading the blog though even if they don't comprehend what they read and manage to take it out of context.  But for those folks I hope that they notice that comments are open on my blog now so they can say their piece to me if they disagree with something I write here.

Well I don't know if it's better to be infamous or famous but I will take my combined 14 pages of attention on AZ and enjoy it.  To those of you who like me – you rock!  To those of you who don't, suck it up.

When my "ban" is over I won't be back.  Karen will be there though and she can reach me if there is something that needs my attention.  Meanwhile AZ Billiards is a great place to be for billiards info if you can avoid the mini-trolls.  So don't hesitate to visit if you want to talk pool.

Oh and before I forget a big shout out to Justin at TAR.  They have a big PPV coming up that everyone should go an see.  With all the free promotion he is giving me and Karen I thought I would return the favor.  www.theactionreport.com
