Saturday Speedlinkin VIII
Boy oh boy am I having “fun” moving all my websites to the new server. Ha ha. Anyone who has done this knows how “fun” it is.
On one hand it’s awesome to see things moving so fast, on another, it sucks to have to wait for those freakin’ domain names to propagate.
Oh well. “These are the breaks..” But I’m sure in the end things will be well worth it.
BTW, it seems that this week I’m posting a link or two more than usual, but that’s just because there were a ton of good posts this week that I just didn’t have the time to get to with all the server craziness on my side. My apologies to all my blogging buddies!
Psych Consult: Day 1 at Physical Therapy by BBM - If you remember, Black Belt Mama is really having a time with her ACL injury. In this post, she talks about her first day at PT and the first step back on the road to recovery. When my wife (a long distance runner) hurt her hip and was stopped from training, it all but killed her so I know how trying this time is for BBM. Make sure you stop by and show some support!

Is Your WordPress Blog Not Notifying You of Comments? by Mark - The title scares me enough! And after reading the article, I just updated Wordpress on a couple of my sites, so this behavior will be something I’ll be keeping an eye open for. Thanks Mark!
Why Google Refunded My PageRank Slap by Court - Like Mr. Tuttle, Lots of us bloggers got hit with a PageRank penalty and are still struggling to come to terms with it. Courtney shows us that you may be able to get your lost PR back like he did!

Thanks for the love, buddy :D
Call of Duty 4 rocks. I finished the game Thursday night. I could totally play through it again ;P

Thanks for the mention…I’ll be checking out all the sites you listed of course I had to chuckle when I read James comment at Courtney’ place…
That made me laugh and I’m proud to say I did not change one thing when my PR dropped I think it went back to where it used to be. I’m very stubborn if you have not figured that out yet. If I don’t like a way a game is played I won’t play it.
Congrats to Mike & Tish for making it into the USA today. I’ve noticed that some online newspapers/magazines don’t give out live links.

I’ve noticed that pretty much MOST online newspapers don’t link to sites they discuss. At least not the big boys. That’s okay though. When I like to them, I use nofollow ;P

Thanks for the link love buddy. I am glad you liked the review.

@Mike - My friend was just griping that he thinks FedEx lost his copy of CoD. ha ha. I’ll tell him you liked it. Congrats again to you and Tish!
@Opal T - “You got it dude”.
@Madhur - Absolutely. Keep up the good work over there. Your site keeps looking better and better!
