Looking over the ratings from last nights State Of The Blog address, many of you viewed but did not click. It appears you went somewhere else.

 I have decided next months speech will be shown over all blogs.

You can run but you cannot hide.

When there is something important that needs to be explained to you, someone above you has to decide what you will see and understand. Someone has to make these decisions for you, so I will use my executive powers to override the other publishers.


In other news, I slept well.  It is exhausting running an entire world, this World of the ATB.   I know people look at me like I am a king or something, and I have it easy.  ... But sometimes, I get these little cramps in my fingers    Or I get some call from an outerworlder saying I owe them money.   I offer them the currency of my land, my signature, and they scoff at me and say 'that has no value here.'   Them and their electricity and running water.

I try to tell them I am KING of an entire Realm and still they scoff.   I need to get them to subscribe, so they know that there are bigger things out there than their call list for the day.  They say they have the power to shut down my world if I do not compensate them  with the coin of their realm.

At least they are speaking in a language I can understand now.

I, the master of my own little corner of the office/studio/spare bedroom-

Thank you for your Time
