I am visiting my doctor Friday morning. I think my health (and sanity) has suffered due to my intense blogging pace and way too many other commitments. I will see what my doctor says and ponder about the future of TBB over the weekend. Look for a post from me sometime this weekend. It may be the most personal post ever.
For the ones who contacted me, thank you for your concern.
Sorry I have not responded to all the comments.
Ribs.
George

I hope all will be well after your visit with the doctor, George.
Anything I can do?
Lili Von Shtupp says
Buzz, I know why you are going to the Doc, this Free Travel Genius blog thing upset the heck out of me too (It’s twue, it’s twue). We have to both be strong…………….Be well my friend. Lili Von Sthupp(new AKA)……………5/24 word of the day…RIBS.

You can relax and let your blood pressure recover.
The world now knows you were right, travel ISN’T free, and the author needs to fund his travel by getting paid for writing MMS posts.
Relax, my friend. Let the doc stitch ya up. You’ll come back swinging. We know you will!!

Hope all will be well! My husband (who has too many degrees from UM) laughed when I told him that A2 is the vanilla capitol of the world. Use some of those points on a relaxing vacation!

hope all is well George. Just pace yourself, it is a journey, not a race.

Even if there is the tiniest chance this silly blog is causing you grief, why continue? Sure, you get the pleasure of knowing a few silly souls (like me) want to read what you have to say, but if you stopped, honestly, I’d forget about this blog in a few days – it’s a blog and there are millions out there…

Hope everything is OK George. Relax and take it easy.

George. You’ll feel a whole lot better once you start earning referrals from cc links.
But seriously, be well.

Feel better, George! Burn some of those skypesos to get you to…well I don’t know where you can go…but go somewhere and relax! 😉

Not that you’ll care George, since it is MMS who is doing it….
But he’s already been caught red handed about not authoring the blog (despite actively misleading his readers), and as predicted….. is now censoring comments related to it
Oh man, if this was TPG, TBB would be all over it.

MMS employing really shady tactics on his blog
I’ve made several comments on his blog under this handle, and now he’s blocked me from being able to access the site
I know because when I switch IP addresses, all of the sudden I was able to get to the site again (side note: does MMS really think that blocking an IP address these days really works?)
He hasn’t censored my comments…. yet. But he has censored others, and has (attempted) to block me from commenting further.
Remember when integrity was a feature of MMS blog and not a nuisance?
Anonymous says
It never was a feature. Some knew he was shady from day one and arrogance was just a weak attempt at masking the insecurity. He knows it, we know it and he knows we know it. All the mother-in-law etc is just user car salesmanship in action and it is not going away. Know those Amway brainwashed salesmen? MMS is similar. He is smart though,don’t get me wrong because he knows he is targeting a specific market (newbies) and can withstand the heat from long timers who are not giving him any money for charades.
But yes, censoring has now started in his blog.
Anonymous says
You guys have it all wrong. The real gem is “manufactured posting” and not censoring. Watch female bots crawl out of nowhere to thank him for all his posts right after someone says “We love you and Emily!! We will continue to refer friends to your sight(sic)”.
George, get well soon. Words of the day “Health is Wealth”.

@AnonymousMay 24, 2013 at 10:12 AM …. Dude get a life, I serious doubt what you are obsessed about is Twue. You keep carrying on about this Bullsh.t like a deranged person (dead giveaway). Take a Zoloft, smell the roses and enjoy life (works for me). Enjoy everyday ,Life is short, opps sorry Buzz. It might be a good idea if you just stop reading his sight and let those of use who do enjoy it, enjoy it. And STOP bothering BUZZ about this. He has more important things going on right now, like coming up with a NEW word of the day each day. Now that’s pressure. Love Ya Buzz, your pal Charles I mean Lili.

Ironically enough, this was in response to a post about how the content being discussed here isn’t actually his

Hope you feel better soon. And if the choice is between the blog and your health, take two of the latter.

George, please tell me you are not serious. I know your sprung forth from the southern european tribe that tends to get excited pdq, but these amateurs duping newbs shouldn’t be bothering you that much, or do they?
Get well soon (after getting some long term prescriptions for some nifty stuff)

@AnonymousMay 24, 2013 at 10:42 AM …………. DEAR WACKO………. I was referring to MMS, I like his site (his interview today was GREAT, exactly what it should be). I like MMS and have recommended it dozens of times to those interested in getting started. But I Love Buzz, so let he recoup you NUT!……. Ribs………………..Candygram for Mongo.

Tough day at the office today, isn’t it MMS 😉 Karma ketchup my friend.

your a jerk

“Your” welcome 🙂 How much did “the man” pay you to post here? Hope it is enough for the morning ribs 🙂
J. Trebuchet says
Getting caught up in the soap opera drama that is the miles/points world where personalities are now growing larger than their usefulness isn’t worth sacrificing your health. Hope everything is OK. I’ve really appreciated the recent return to your roots of calling people out for their shady tactics.
Ralph Kramden says
Dear Bluegrass, and all the other anonymous and other name postings here and on the MMS site. Pretty obvious you are one guy with an agenda against MMS. Who gives a Sh.t, who gives a F..k about what you are writing about. Sorry God gave you a SMALL PENIS, but give it a break already. We get it, you hate MMS. Nobody cares.

Respect those are not talking about your master. They are far too many. And if you don’t care, why bother showing that you do care?
Back to bend-over position for thy master. Oh and we are comfortable with the size 😀 thanks for playing.

If you are serious, I doubt it has to due to your INTENSE, UNIMAGINABLE, HORRIFIC, BACK-BREAKING blogging schedule. THE INSANITY. I mean, really, you blog maybe once a day and all of about 3-4 paragraphs max at that.
Give me a break. If you do have issues, it’s with something else…not blogging.

uh oh, I’m out of the loop. I hope you are ok. you deserve the best.

Relax, listen to your doctor, and feel better. My best to you. ^MJ
James says
Yes, please get better –
How about a inviting a guest blogger while you’re recovering?
K2o says
Hey George…missing your writing and twisted humor. GWS!
TravelBlogger Buzz says
I have read every comment. I am fine. I will explain the medical situation over the weekend. I am now working on my Buzz post that covers two days so it will be more satisfying to the hater who thinks I am mailing it in.
