  18. Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you're working with?
    I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm having
    a difficult time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
    The reason I ask is because your design seems different
    then most blogs and I'm looking for something completely
    unique. P.S My apologies for
    getting off-topic but I had to ask!

  19. Hello this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if
    you have to manually code with HTML. I'm starting a
    blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get guidance from
    someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  29. Today, I went to the beach front with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my
    4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She placed the shell
    to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear.
    She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell
    someone!
