Hello again Troll followers,
It's been a while since my last post, but somehow I don't think anyone minds. I wasn't going to write a post now because my feelings are pretty low. Then I thought, this blog isn't so much for my business as it is for me to put my feelings and other thoughts down. The site is called Ugly Troll World, The Thoughts and Feelings of the Chief Troll so I decided to jot down what is in my head at this moment...besides who really reads this stuff when there is so much other, more interesting crap to read.
The overall feeling in sadness. The start is it being tax time. I didn't realize just how much doing the behind the scenes stuff , the paperwork, the taxes and such......just how much it sucks. So that is the start, gathering up all the receipts and invoices and other crap and dealing with a CPA. I don't have a very high tolerance for figures and numbers so I needed one. Which is worse, paying a CPA to do your taxes or suffering the wrath of Uncle Sam if you screw them up by doing them yourself? I suppose the both suck equally.
However, that isn't really the issue...I had dinner with my family the other night....that is to say my brother, sis in law, sister, my wife, and nephew and his fiance. This saddened me the most. My nephew, Nick, is a Marine. He's been over in Iraq and was even blown up with a roadside bomb. I watched this kid grow up to be a fine young man and now he's serving his country in war. Man, I never thought I'd see a Troll go to war. But here it is, right in front of me. Of course the stress, fear, and worry is a small thing in comparison to my brother. What does a father feel when his only son is wounded in battle? So, Nick, is off to war again. This is his second tour. He is facing it a whole lot better than I can. I don't let him see it though, but I'm scared. I hold onto one thing...he's a Marine. No matter how you slice him, he comes out red/white & blue. He's also a smart, strong kid too.
Anyway, as far as the business goes, we're still plugging away. Ok...enough of this blog writing. I'm going to go eat some roadkill.

Been there and done that.
I think there must be major advantage to being a troll. I don't know a lot about being a troll but if it makes any difference, you are the best troll I know. I guess that is why you are the Chief Troll.
Every time I chance to look at greeting cards I think of how much better your cards are. Keep on churning them out.
