Falling out of love with Blogger

Sheesh. Of course Blogger has no public phone number. I posted an issue with Google Analytics no longer sending data on a few of my sites and got no response… EVER… So I don’t hold out too much faith in their response time for Blogger. Meanwhile, all my Adsense revenue for the site seems to have disappeared into the ether. Again, no response from the Adsense side of Google.

Usually visitations are only ordered when something has gone terribly wrong in an arm of the church. For example, a visitation was ordered for seminaries in the aftermath of the priest sexual-abuse scandal.
