No offense, but I don’t understand why you do this, or why anyone would want to read it. “Okay here comes this guy. Now they go over here. Now it’s a commercial.” No insight, nothing funny or entertaining. Is it a cheap marketing gimmick to try to get more views for your site? Either way, I checked it out once to see what it was all about and won’t be back. Peace.
