Backpacking Gear for Africa

Hey yall,

Just so you know, over the next week or so I'm going to be updating my gear list for those interested in undertaking a similar journey of spirit animal discovery. The blog is going to be a string of entries related to gear and little else for the time being.

The first travel narratives should be appearing in a mere two weeks!

 

Ad Nonsense

The Google AdSense is acting up again. And it's almost impossible for me to talk about. You see, once a week, the Google Adsense bots storm my blog and index everything. AdSense is designed to provide ads relevant to the content. So any words I write that refer to the ads' topics will only reinforce them.

At first, everything was great. All the ads concerned Africa--safari companies and the like. Now, however, ever since my forays into other topics, the AdSense has been displaying ads concerning, well...you can see for yourself.

After writing about my contempt for a certain mode of transport and their users, the ads were all plugging the very object of my hatred--the height of irony. And now a deleted post about a right-wing radio talk show host and his illegal use of contraband is responsible for the current ads which give you a somewhat inaccurate idea of what this blog and I are about.

Things should be cleared up next week, when the bots again storm the html. Until then, thanks for reserving judgment.

Pretty cool, eh?

I recently switched to the new version of Blogger which shouldn't effect you (or anyone else for that matter) unless you are trying to comment on a post. It appears that the most current version of Blogger does not support comments, for the time being.

I'll let all of you with your umbilical cords wrapped around this site know when comments are once again enabled.

In the meantime, I totally dare you to try commenting.
