I thought about that THL, but it was not a google ad. It was a large image, just like the ads for Forte and other condo developments that pay to advertise on this site.
Its funny, I don’t have a car up here in Brooklyn. Nor do i want one. The funny part is that I can practically park right in front of my house almost anytime of the day, or across the street on street cleaning days but if I ever used a car to drive somewhere else in Brooklyn like PS, BoCoCa I’d have to hunt a while for a space and it’d be a bigger pain in the ass.
Snappy, You’d have to ask Mr. B but my suspicion is it’s because he’s monetized through Google Ads. They suposed try to match to yoiur blogs content but that’s not always the case. You personally have no control over what the content will be. On my blog I get a lot of jewelry ads (right now I have Blue Nile) b/c I post a lot of jewelry. However, I’ve had dating services, real estate ads, even one for Golden Blossom Honey when I posted about a cooking utensil.
Something probably triggered it to put that up.
I’m not saying it’s right but I hope that helps ease your mind a bit.
“Have any of you seen the ad on the main page that asks you to support free speech and religious liberty?”
also is it just me but is anyone else seriously just super good at tuning out ads? they just fall into my blindspot or something. i dont “get” internet advertising (or advertising in general) it’s not like im gonna see some flashy thing, click on it, be taken to an annoying obnoxious slow loading website, then plunk down 2 million for a condo lol
m4l…we’re buying things that have lagged in Asia now…TTF, PHI, TLK, SGAPY, KEF, MAY….the inclusion of closed end country funds may seem odd when there are ETFs out there (which we also own) but the country funds are selling at discounts to NAV (TTF, KEF and MAY). SCBFF is still a buy…look at the yields on that, PHI and TLK…they are big. Sold all our TSM Monday.
it’s funny im gay and im for “traditional marriage rights” i believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman, however there should be ZERO tax breaks for marriage. it’s a stupid f’ed up system. i can walk outside right now and look at lamppost and say hey im married to you now, so in thus we are married. a stupid piece of paper and some tax breaks doesnt mean crap. (actually i dont think marriage should exist in general). it’s a sham. have your dumb ceremonies and stuff, but leave the law and economics out of it. also b@stard children ive noticed are much more grounded in reality and creative in general.
The ads on the main page keep changing every time I refresh. It’s now gone from mine as well. I’m still disturbed however that it was ever there. I doubt that this means its gone for good.
Dave the market should start going back down this week… I don’t know if we will retest and bounce back up or not.. That will be determined by the numbers in the job market and others in the coming month… But my charts say this week we start going down. I have been wrong before but not during this current downward market… Take it for what it is worth.. My two cents……

had never ever had to fight for a parking spot or cruise too long for it. Parking in Clinton Hill must be the easiest among the downtown BK hoods
Snappy, I dont see the ad either
