One of the "funnest" parts of writing this blog has been the interaction I have enjoyed with some of my family and friends.
I have received some helpful criticism and REALLY nice compliments, and I appreciate it!
This blog will include a few of your comments of late ... your 20 cents, as it were.
Twenty cents, because that is what I have earned in ad revenue from the site from over two months of blogging.
The experience I have gained, as I move on to beliefnet.com in the coming weeks, has been invaluable though, and readership has SOARED from early putrid numbers ... so I am grateful.
On now, to some of your comments that have touched me, made me laugh or made me think ... the latter being a miracle in itself ... lol!

"Heaven help us if the Trumpster runs for president" ... said my long-time friend Deb from California's Bay Area on my recent column on "The Apprentice".
my reply: Trump running ... isn't the problem, winning is. seriously though Deb, no president has EVER come into office less experienced and with more question marks than Pres. Obama ... and in my opinion it has shown. Trump is tough, loves this country and would probably get the economy moving again ... but he most likely WON'T run.

"Get rid of the 'hopefully' in the sub-headline, you ARE funny Matt" ... said my NOW favorite brother Chris from Connecticut.
my reply: awww and thanks ... and you are a great father, brother and husband!

"WOW Matt! That was really beautiful and touching. You are a thought-provoking and talented writer; I am proud of you!" ... said my NOW favorite cousin Noreen from Seaford of my column on CBS Sunday Morning.
my reply: It's easy to write about subjects that come from the heart Nor. I appreciate the Gallaghers always being there for me as a kid ... and even now!
OK ... that's it for now ... perhaps more comments and notes soon!
thanks for reading and tty Friday.
