We have a blogger, if you call him that, in our midst that is lifting my blogs, twisting words, adding words that simply don't make sense.
I advised him about the laws of plagarism and he seems to think that he is in the right. I explained to him that, if he were in college, he would fail the course. He promptly replied that he wasn't in college. Duh! I did say IF!
I also explained to him that the laws applied to the real world as well. His response? So sue me!
Geezzz... as much as I despise going down that path, I am oh so tempted to do so. After all, I was a paralegal for more than 15 years; I am certain that I could find a good internet law attorney in my area. Sometimes living in a capital city has its advantages as well.
In case, he gets a conscience about the matter and tries to change it up, I have already printed the pages up. What this guy may or may not realize that the blog postings are date and time stamped for a reason!!
It has me pretty riled up right now. It is a unspoken rule that if you are quoting anyone or wanting lift a portion of another's blog creations, you give the original blogger credit, not to mention that there are some blogger ettitique and plagarism rules that we all live by in this world we live in.
When someone even attempts to mock someone for a comedy spoof, one wouldn't take the entire recipe (in form and text) and twist up some of the ingredients (which make no sane sense), would you????
Auuugghghghggh.
If any of you want more details, just let me know and I will be glad to share what I know.
Sometimes, the pen is mightier than the sword... but so is intelligence! Geezz... hoping he doesn't have the audacity to plagarize this too!
