My deleted blogger post

Last Update: September 24, 2010

Today I had the time and the curiosity to go to my blogger.com dashboard.  Where I normally clicked to go to the deleted blog, Blogger's put:

Restore access to this blog (with the first word hyperlinking to a page where they asked me how I want a verification code sent to me.  I went through the steps and got this:

Blogger's spam-prevention robots have detected that your blog has characteristics of a spam blog. (What's a spam blog?) Since you're an actual person reading this, your blog is probably not a spam blog. Automated spam detection is inherently fuzzy, and we sincerely apologize for this false positive.

The I got the code and put it in.  Which got them to send me this:

Request Received

Thank you for your unlock review request. We have received your request for a review, and we will review it within the next two business days. Once we have reviewed your blog, we will email you at xxx@gmail.com. Note that our email may go to your email inbox's spam folder, so be sure to check there for the email.

I will let you know what a human at Google thinks of my site. 

Please don't bombard xxx with emails, it's not his/her fault I want to hide my real email address and lack imagination.

I am now waiting with bated breath (which, for a long time, I used to think was bathed breath, which I wish it were bathed breath coz is more fun).

Till Google gets back to me, nanu-nanu.

What!  You don't know Mork and Mindy?  What on earth did you do to waste your youth properly, like you're supposed to?

PS  I know, I know.  I slay myself too.

I was of the impression that it was "Baited" breath.

I always had a feeling you did things right, Joan. I swear I did.
This is becoming interesting to me as I did not know they had a big problem with automatic blog creation.

The saga continues. At least they apologize. Got to take the fly swatter out of their hands. Nanu-nanu to you too Dusan. Now you know I was a respectable youth.
