My Last Post. Thank You for Everything.
I'm not big on long goodbyes so I'm going to keep this short. After much thought and consideration, I've decided to stop blogging on Logic + Emotion. There are a number of reasons for this which I really can't get into—I hope you'll respect this decision as it wasn't an easy one.
I just want to say THANK YOU, all of you for everything. It's been an amazing year and I've learned so much from all of you. I can probably go on and on, but it's just better that I don't. Hopefully you can understand this even though I'm not giving you much to go on.
Please know that I will always be available via e-mail, and I'm still keeping my Twitter account open. I will also keep this Typepad account open for as long as possible to serve as an archive etc.
Again, thank you for everything. The conversation will still go on—just not here. I've done one last visual, for you to download.
Thanks again for everything.
-David.

Thanks for the interesting thought pieces!
Good luck in your ventures
-MV

Good one! I still hold my compliment; keep writing the good stuff.

Nice one, had me going for a while.
And by a while I mean a few hours.

Bastard. I was wiping the tears away from my eyes before I clicked on the link . . .;)

Sadistic bastard. God, I love that about you! :)

Very funny. You got me.

My heart sank into stomach for a few tense moments!

Okay. The first tear was beginning to form and I was framing my sensitive and heart-felt good-byes in my mind. You got me! Now don't ever do that again.

You bastard! I was just picking up the phone to scold you when I clicked on the visual.
Phew! :)

You wrote that with such a straight face I am still laughing. Good thing I napped today;-) And now we have merged CreativeThink with Logic+Emotion. I can read Roger's influence here. Well done, my friend. You're not getting away THAT esy.

You're too quick! My April Fool's post was going to be "Armano to Stop Blogging." Oh, well. Back to the drawing board...

David - Had me going too! Once again amazing creativity.

After The Show with Ze Frank (one of my other favorites) ending recently, this one gave me a bit of a fright when it popped up in the RSS reader.
Dont't do that agagin ;-).

I want you to know that your blog was my favourite. Good luck.

Maurizio,
Click on the link!
Posted by: DA | Sunday, April 01, 2007 at 04:21 PM
Hey I did click on the link, but you have also to know that I wrote a post in italian about strategic errors :)
I did not believe you could stop blogging, but this was an occasion for writing you my "microsensation" about your blog.
Posted by: Maurizio Goetz | Sunday, April 01, 2007 at 04:30 PM
Well played sir. Well played :)

Ahhh Maurizio, I saw your post and now it makes sense (I think, not sure I got the translation exact). Well, all I can say is that L+E is an extension of my personality and I value a good chuckle. Not healthy to take anything too seriously—especially something like blogging. Happy April Fools Day.

You jerk. I wept. Hee hee ;-)

Did you know that April Fools Day is my favorite holiday? Of course, the flip side is that I spend all day WAITING for pranks like this one, so I'm smarter than the average bear about this stuff... nice one, though, nonetheless.
