Lotsa that going around. I'm persona-non-grata amongst many in my hometown because of my many Op/Ed cartoons in our local paper, in which I've suggested Bush is a liar, and (Gasp) Peace is better than War. I've been proud enough of my work and my opinions that I never used a pen name on my 'toons, and now I get "the look" at several places around town, as if I'm personally housing Osama in my outbuilding. Small price to pay, to be sure, for real enduring freedom.

Some people were fired from my company because they were arguing with some posts regarding our business. Apparently an unhappy customer was saying how terrible our company was, and then some of the following posts were from employees that said the reason the customer was so unahppy was their own fault for one reason or another...it got very heated & in the employee trying to put blame on the customer someone complained & we pulled the employees plug. We have since been instructed not to respond when we see ugly remarks. =o)
