Some of my favorites this week:

I think that you'd probably do well in a consulting role where you are helping companies who want to improve in the area of creating passionate users (products and websites). Your knowledge of the field is shown well by your blogging, and maybe getting out in front of people will give you more of a reason to stay passionate about this subject area (if not the blog itself)., http://trishstratusporncn.freeforums.org trish stratus porn, yufne, http://katherineheiglhotdx.freeforums.org katherine heigl hot, >:OO, http://chynanudezk.tumblr.com chyna nude, 8-O, http://marioncotillardhotym.freeforums.org marion cotillard hot, wiokee, http://aholahuwiq.livejournal.com KANGANA RANAUT HOT, hstfvl,

Having said all of that, I wonder if Ande's idea isn't the best (regardless of what format you choose to go with for the blog). If it was still public with no comments, but you cross-posted entries in a private forum, you could allow people to respond and discuss in a controlled/private environment, but still keep the blog itself public. I'm not sure how much extra work that would be for you, but if it was negligible I would say that's the best option for running your site the way you have and seem to love, but keeping the riffraff at bay., http://angelinajolienudepics3.typepad.com angelina jolie nude pics, lphgjj, http://sandrabullocksextapeel.tumblr.com sandra bullock sex tape, jokmsz, http://camerondiazassji.freeforums.org cameron diaz ass, 24827, http://marciekupu.livejournal.com GILLIAN ANDERSON NUDE, yklay, http://jamesfranconaked2.typepad.com james franco naked, prw, http://jnudeinakedlsex.insanejournal.com jessica alba fakes, %-), http://imogenthomassextape2.typepad.com imogen thomas sex tape, 2600, http://katebeckinsalesexnf.freeforums.org kate beckinsale sex, =-DDD, http://ciaranakedwr.freeforums.org ciara naked, >:P,

Is there a way use some sort of third party forum moderation to cut through this problem?

It makes sense about not continuing with "business as usual" — I couldn't do it, either. But I can't see ghost writing as being satisfiying for someone with as strong a voice as yours. Being an evangelist for the likes of Apple or Adobe might be cool, but would that let you continue with the stream of consciousness riffs that have obviously been satifsying for you — and been so energizing for us, your readers?
