Cindy Lange-Kubick reads BorK / SCS Sorry Cindy :(
I had heard about this Friday night and wanted to let Cindy know we are just a bunch of cottenninnyninnymuggins who are filled with snark, but she blogged about it. Uh oh.
Google Your Life Away
My coworker wrote a funny story today about the time people spend surfing the web looking up stuff and wasting time.
Micah mentioned that he googled himself. Maybe it’s a journalist thing.
I googled myself recently, too. I found a bunch of columns I’d written for the paper posted on other sites — which was nice. And then I found this which wasn’t so nice.
BOMB Cindy Lange-Kubick? Is that an acronym?
I told my sweet daughter about all the nastiness and she asked me if she should post nice things about her mommy. Or go beat them up. I told her thanks but no.
But now I know that there are people out there who think I’m: a) a crappy writer b) ugly and c) hate-worthy.
I guess there’s a lesson there in the perils of googling, especially ones own self.
Sigh……
Sorry things got a bit mean there. We like you CLK, you add a bit of brightness to the LJS.
I have sent an apology email to her. I am ashamed.
HUG Cindy Lange-Kubick
Haha so rad.

Well, to be fair, she has an openly public media persona and for better or worse she’s going to get praise or ridicule. Blogs allow for people’s opinions to be broadcast and you should not have to apologize unless your opinion was not genuine.
With that said, I think her articles are too watery to drink in.

I’m surprised she didn’t find the horrible things Tom Casady said about her on his blog…
