  1. Having read this I believed it was really enlightening. I appreciate you spending some time
    and effort to put this article together. I once again find myself
    spending a significant amount of time both reading and posting comments.
    But so what, it was still worth it!

  2. I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was curious what all is needed to get setup?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% certain. Any tips or advice
    would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
