I’m just about done with this

Thanks Alex for the $20 bucks… It truly helped not to mention you were the only person to send anything. The rest of you, thanks for taking the time and leaving your comments. I know we don’t all make 120k a year and your moral support of wanting to making things happen isn’t always enough.

Honestly speaking, (this is just my personal opinion…) between the time I was in Dominican Republic and the time I’ve been back… which has been about what… 3 weeks? I can’t say I’m impressed with the support that the Dominican Blogosphere has to offer. Particularly those living in Dominican Republic.

I think that those of us living outside of the country have contributed more in many other ways and have come to share and express true love to a culture that we desire to be in more so then those that are already there. That’s just my personal opinion and I hope no one gets offended as many people may.

On my arrival back home I was faced with the most oddest request with from one person that helped me organize the visits. I mean, not only did I take time off from work, make dozens of phone calls from my company cell phone, travel from Jarabacoa to St. Domingo the three days I was there, treat those that I was with, donate the things I donated… but the person had the audacity to ask for a favor in return… As compensation for organizing our visits, that they were depending on $50-$100 towards a new piece of equipment they needed for personal use. WTF!?

I’m not being fesicious when i say that NY Dominican Bloggers have contributed more then those living in the country, but I think we have.

Como que le quieren sacar aprovecho a algo que es tan sencillo y tan “que se yo”… sin mente diria yo… talking about having a blog radio show that is broadcasted nationally, using blogs as a spin off to new television shows, it’s hilarious. I mean how much about blogs can you really talk about and how much about blogs do you really know!? what is there to know?! All you can do is invite publicists and journalists that already have blogs onto a show and ask the same questions over and over… No originality whats so ever.

Peridismo ciudadano ok… ta bien… eh… eso de estar dando “Talleres”… pero ven aca… and you get paid for it!? hahaha… I don’t know. Showing someone how to turn a computer on is bad enough but they need a computer before they know how to surf the web, never the less post a picture on a blog.

And what ever happen to an interview they supposedly recorded? I certainly didn’t recieve any email regarding its broadcast… not like I was talkative… but it’s the principle… personally I didn’t make it much of an interview because it was lame to ask me the same questions to which the answers were quite clear… For example…

How did BlogsDominicanos.com start?

Did you want a 5 second reference to the url blog post or do you want me to start from the begnining?

All I can ask is that you take it with a grain of salt and forgive me for my honesty.

Soo… with that being said I’m ready for my mouth lashing from so many of you that have never commented on my blog before. Tell me it’s a lie and that I have no idea of what the fuck I’m talking about.
