As the blog's self-appointed ombudsman, I have heard the complaints and taken action: Jeff's access has been temporarily suspended. Don't get mad. Simply put I think we can all agree that the people should have more voice. The proletariat have united to throw down the bourgeois, it's a people's s revolution if you will.
To prevent future abuse of power, it is only fair that we adopt a "United Nations Security Council "style power of veto. I understand that being able to control the flow of this particular blog can be addicting. The power is simply too much, it's like holding the "one true ring." We're all aware that "absolute power corrupts absolutely." I only hope that temporarily removing Jeff's admin position doesn't turn him into a reclusive Golom.
As a temporary solution, if one person objects to the blog's content, that person can exercise their right to veto. Let Anna (the Secretary General if you will) know and the veto will be exercised. Ideally, balance will be achieved (unless you live in Laverkin, Utah, a town which formally does not recognize the United Nations). If Jeff can guarantee better behavior, the council can give him back his admin status.
We saw this happen with the fairy picture and Jeff got to take over the blog. Now, it's only fair that the blog management shifts to someone else. We are not at liberty to say who has the power now.

SETTLE THE FREAK DOWN, you're acting like E.A. when something goes wrong. Take some freaking 8 ball to self medicate if you have to. It was a joke, I wasn't going to leave it there. I guess we can't joke around here anymore so whatever.
What just happened? Something just happened--what just happened? I can't really tell because simple words like "stuff" and "junk" weren't used.
I love how Jeff tells everyone to settle down when he's the only one upset.
Where is my blog I just posted?
Brother, nothing is going right today! First of all dad starts the pickup on fire and then my comment disappears! Well tune in for more details on the pickup. Anyway, I'm afraid the blog is degenerating into somthing that is hurting people's feelings and I know that is not why we started it. It has gone from laughing so hard at stuff, to me thinking, "oh oh, whose feelings will that hurt?" I love all of you and I know all of you love all of you, so this dredging up of hurt feelings that is now happening on a regular basis, needs to stop. You are all so funny! Keep to the funny stuff or we might need to shut it down. Am I way off base?
Here's my 2nd try
Okay, again we find ourselves at a place where people are feeling bad about the blog. We don't need this, we need to be laughing, not feeling bad when we dare to look at the blog now. If this blog isn't a positive force in our lives, we need to either back off or shut it down. What do you think? I love you all and I know you love you all, let's show more of that and the world have more love and peace, that is my life's goal. Amen.
Anyone who is offended by anything any of us writes needs to take a step back and find out why they are taking themselves so seriously. That's my two bits.
Sorry Jan - you're comments didn't post because of the way the blog was set up. I changed it so that you should be able to post comments immediately.
I've never been offended at anything thus far - alright, whose taking this seriously? No one should take my comments seriously - hopefully you've sensed my sarcasm because I'm laying it on pretty thick.
I have nothing really to say, I just want my post to have 11 comments.
