GoLSN got bitched by Google

I thought that today I would talk about gardening or short term survival instead of going off on a rant. I honestly intended to until, I ran across this bit of info when checking on some items I had listed for sale with GoLSN ( a local swap and shop type site ). It turns out that they have been EBayed.

I wonder if saying "Fuck Google" will get me kicked off of Blogger? Or maybe this instead?

I have an old Winchester single shot 20 Ga. shotgun an a box of ammo for sale, no paperwork involved for Tennessee residents. $125 is my rock bottom price, any less and I would just as soon keep it. Pickup in Cookeville, Tn area only. If you are interested leave me a message in the comments section with a way to contact you and I'll send pictures or answer questions.

If it stops raining, I'll go out and take some pictures of my gardens for a post tomorrow. I'll also tell you about the help I got from my two friends in Georgia, Dave and Maggie, and the motivation that I got from my brother.
