Okay, there really was no reason behind the horrible grammer there. I just thought I'd spice things up a bit. Here is a simple step-by-step guide to adding a comment on my blog since it seems that some people (Tony Asher) seem to be unable to complete this seemingly simple task. Of course, it is not as simple as it seems. Here is how to properly comment:

1. Push the link to bring up the comment box


2. Read the existing comments and laugh at the subtle humor
   • Do not laugh too loud
   
   
   • Make it more like a chuckle, as if it is just slightly humorous
3. After reading the previous comments, randomly choose one and write the commenter an email
• The subject of the email should be either a dairy product or your favorite barnyard animal


• The body should contain no more than 8 nouns and 6 of them must be part of a prepositional phrase.
  
• Close the letter with a nickname typed in a color font that makes it nearly invisible when placed on your background, or perhaps just gives a headache to the reader


• Don't forget to tell them that they get $8.23 if they send it to all their friends, relatives, every random person they saw in the past 48 hours, and all remaining living former-vice presidents.


• Somewhere in the email must contain the entire numeric value of Pi


4. Returning to the comments, scroll to the bottom of the page and note the several blanks with words to the left of them.


5. In the one that says "Name:", insert your name, and so on.


6. Finally, you will find a big empty box and when the cursor is in it, you will notice that pushing buttons on your keyboard makes letters appear in there. Sometimes, if you push the buttons in the right order real words will form.


7. Lastly, push the button that says "Comment >>"

With these simple instructions, you too can post comments as well as I do. Unfortunately, not all people can do so. A common problem is something I like to call Recommenting. This is when someone posts the same comment more than once. Here is a simple troubleshooting section to see what you did wrong if you ever experience Recommenting.

• Did you type out a post, push comment, close out, reopen the commenting box, type out the exact same comment, and post it again?


• Are you sure?


• Maybe you are crazy

I hope this has been helpful to those of you who have been having difficulty with such a complicated procedure.
