My 2009 Final Four Picks
Just like last year, I’d like to take a moment (just sit right there) to share with you my 2009 Final Four picks. As I haven’t watched much college basketball this year I likely will not fill out a bracket. However, since I got 75% of the Final Four correct last year, let’s expand it […]
Why You Shouldn’t Order Business Cards After Midnight
Recently I haven’t been updating this blog and our various blogs run through The 42nd Estate as much as I’d like but for good reason. We’ve been doing a lot of behind the scenes work to pump out new services and implement a slick new design for The 42nd Estate. Well, a few days ago […]
Blighted Edward Everett Square Building Set for Renovation
As a longtime resident of the Edward Everett Square/Polish Triangle area of Dorchester, there has been one building which has been a blight on my neighborhood as far back as I can remember. The building is the NE Brake Building located at 1299 Massachusetts Avenue. Well, according to The Dorchester Reporter, this building is (finally) […]
My Content Syndication Policy
Recently I discovered a local newspaper was publishing my blog content on their site. At first I was pumped but when I took a look at the page where they were syndicating my content, I quickly noticed that they were publishing my entire feed! Doing so actually ends up hurting both the news site and […]
My New Server’s First Test
Yesterday was a pretty big day here at Prose of a Pol. I woke up rather early yesterday, at 4:30 AM to be exact, and felt energized and ready to be productive after only four hours of sleep. I immediately began pumping out posts. First I published a trailer of a Battlestar Galactica remake that […]
Car-free for nearly a year!
For the past year I’ve been nearly car-free. I won’t say it’s been easy but my only regret so far is that I did not start driving less sooner! My unofficial count is that during the past 365 days I’ve either driven or been a passenger in a car a total of less than fifteen […]
New Server
A few hours ago I moved this blog to a server run by The 42nd Estate LLC. There should be no issues but if you do experience any problems with this blog over the next two to three days that is why. If you’re reading this post then you’re already accessing this blog on the […]
Polish Power! The story of Wojtek: The cigarette smoking, beer chugging, Nazi fighting Polish soldier bear
In the sixth grade, I remember learning about World War II, and specifically about how overmatched the Polish people were against the mammoth German war machine. We were told that in some battles the Poles had no choice but to send out warriors on horseback armed with sticks to fight off the invading German tanks. […]
My Comment Policy
By Adam on March 3, 2009
Ever since moving this blog over to dofollow, I’ve noticed an increase in questionable comments. What I mean by that is comments that seem relevant to the post content but are spammy because of jamming keywords into the username field or the actual site linked is spammy. It’s these borderline comments that I’d like to […]
