The Macalope has been caught and put on display in a zoo? In an adjoining cage to that of Mr. Ou's or something? What a disgrace. Even his voice sounds different now, with all that ridiculous soft boxing around and somewhat girlish colouring topped with a nice gradient. Worst of all, does it look to you, too, that he seems to be liking it? WTF? The Macalope has been caught and put on display in a zoo? In an adjoining cage to that of Mr. Ou’s or something?

None of the beautiful decorations you've put up here, the comments are hard to read (or even to find) and ugly, the posting system is poor (I mean, come on, going to another page to comment ? How lame is that ?) So, please, come back. Apart from the already cited forced registration problem, I must say, after 10 days, that the cnet pages look horrible.

Other sites aren't giving me this kinda guff. From this, one can only conclude that cnet is really great. Or maybe that it sucks butt. One of those.

So, it can be done without putting much at risk.

I really do. I'm glad you're making some greenbacks. You deserve them (but what a mythical, part-mac, part-man, part-antelope needs cash for is beyond me). I will continue to read your blog over at cNet...Cnet...CNet....or whatever it is. Sadly, I won't be able to comment (or apparently even read the comments), as I really don't want yet ANOTHER membership to ANOTHER online whatzoomahizzle. Especially cNet, CNet, Cnet....etc. Frankly, Idon't trust 'em, and I already have way too many memberships with various versions of my password floating around, waiting for one of these organizations to lose my data and spill my info. I hope you understand. Dear Mr. Macalope,

He'll try to find a link for feedback info, until then maybe it'd be better to leave a comment over there.
