[The Happy Rock]

Thanks for the link FMF! I really appreciate you content. Thanks for helping me shell out the money for a CPA this year, it will be well worth it.

I also enjoyed seeing your site reviewed on problogger, those are always very helpful. Especially since it was a site I am quite familiar with. Are you going to invest some of the site's income to get a new professional design? I think your readers would benefit greatly, and I suspect your traffic/page views will go up.

Happy --

Glad to highlight your stuff. ;-)

After the Problogger feedback, I asked readers what they wanted me to do and most wanted fewer changes. So I will be changing things here a bit, but not as dramatic as PB recommended.
