obligatory new years rant

for the past several years i have been journaling. something that a friend told me was "a good way to get it out and maybe learn something in the process." overall, a good idea. at the time i started writing, i was enraptured by how blessed my life was and, at the same time, how unsettled i was.

fast forward a few years...i outgrew that particular therapy. occasionally i would pick up the book to jot down some "big" happening or to summarize a recent change in my life. the only true consistency i found was that i could do an "end of the year" entry every year and pretty much be done with it.

so, as i sit here thumbing through cade's great journal project - volume #3 i notice that the last entry is indeed december 31, 2003 7:07 pm. now with the surprise expansion of cadeland, i will take a leap and do this year's entry electronically. you may read it here.

as for the true spirit of this annex: you may check this one out to read something a little less..."gooey"

Hey cade...
How did you get your blog to be so good? Originally I was out trying to locate new surfboards related information, but your post ' obligatory new years rant ' got my attention and stopped me in my tracks :) Glad I found you because I'm trying to improve my site about new surfboards and your blog here gave me some excellent ideas. Thanks cade for the good read and I think I'll mention your blog to my cousin (if that's okay...)

Keep up your effort ~ and good job.

Well cade, quality blogging comes from people who put the energy into their blog like you have. It was a nice change to land on your blog, lots of others are junked up with useless comments and information. I put a lot of energy into my surfboards site, so it does pretty well with surfboards stuff. I think I'll re-create my blog because I like what you've done here and want mine to be more like yours. Thanks for the lesson in good bloggin. You get a special bookmark :)

have a fantastic day..

Howdy cade,
I'm impressed with what you wrote here in your obligatory new years rant post. I gave up my search for surfboards information and wanted to hang out here on your blog - well done. I might make a blog like yours about surfboards, but I wouldn't try to compete with you. You're doing a great job cade.
You got a great thing going... by friend.

cade, I need a little inspiration... I've read your post 'obligatory new years rant', I enjoyed it so I decided to comment. I've been thinking about my blog and how there are all these people posting strange comments there. Maybe you understand, I'm not sure, but it's tiring to read the numbers of comments that don't have much to do with my stuff. My normal used surf boards website never suffers this because it just sells used surf boards and isn't a blog. Do you have any ideas for how to stop the cluttering of non-relevant comments? Thanks for your great blog. Tips are always welcome...

good day -
