Four years looks like long enough

It was four years and eight days ago, 1554 posts ago, that Walt [and Ed.!] began blogging. We don't do it for financial gain. The purpose was solely to say things that need to be said, things that are politically incorrect, "home truths" that are in danger of being forgotten.

For his pains, Wlat has been called racist, homophobic, anti-American, anti-Canadian, anti-British, anti-Muslim, arch-conservative, anti-conservative, "more Catholic than the Pope" [not hard, nowadays. Ed.] and a long list of other insults. Or perhaps they're compliments. Some of the comments we get are so poorly written that it's hard to figure out their meaning.

On top of that, poor Ed. has to cope with the vagaries of the "new and improved" Blogger, and now -- as if that wasn't bad enough -- the "new and improved" Yahoo! Mail. When will software developers learn the truth of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"?

All things considered, Walt [and Ed.!] think it may be time to throw in the towel, not in surrender but in recognition that our society and the Church are going to hell in the proverbial handcart, and our effort to at least apply the brake is futile.

Many thanks to all Walt's agents who have contributed leads, links and moral support, and to our readers. See you on the other side.
