I thought your comments were sincere and genuine. Not much more you could do.

On another note, if you want to spice up your Wordpress blog, Artisteer would be a good product to enhance your Wordpress template.

Thank you Jerry. I am at a loss as to what else to say. I truly believe that GM is doing everything it can to regain the trust of the American people. You know, I worked for Chrysler for years. I don't want to see bad things happen to any American company. I really believe they have learned the hard way... and that's the best way.

I agree that my blog is not as professional as it could be. I am one of those people who would prefer to write his own html when possible. I was very unsure of myself when I started the blog. I played with the idea for 6 months (too long) before I started. But I knew there were pitfalls and did not want to fall into them. I am somewhat happy that my blog went from 98 visitors in September 2009 to 800 in February 2010. I don't know why. I just try to keep them interested. But what I do know, is that it has helped my SEO. I saw more visitors to our main website in January than I have ever seen before. And we have always had a great number there compared to our competitors in one of the most competitive markets in the country.

Anyway, I hope you don't take offense to what I said in a different forum. We all do our best!

No offense taken and I hope there's none on your part. I just felt a strong need to reply. You probably work harder than you give yourself credit for. Nothing wrong with being a family man.

As far as your website, I am not on to preach, I've had my own issues building my site. I am learning new tricks every day. That product I suggested, really helped me design a template I was happy with instead of searching the countless freebies out there.

Jerry,

I wish you well. I know that you're sincere. I guess as a human being, I'm tired of hearing people come out with "new" ideas that have been around for 10 years but no one would listen until these "supersmart" respected voices decided to say them.

I know how it is. I could tell my boss something 59 times and he won't listen. But then he hears the "expert" say it and asks me why we aren't doing it?

The funny thing is, I've got more experience than the "expert"! Maybe I've been here too long and they take me for granted.
