I really apologize for missing the Carson trash pickup and meeting yesterday. I am full of great excuses though, none of which will help clean up the streets or organize the community but good excuses nevertheless.

First, I am still milking that car accident and full body paralyzation thing I experienced a few years back. Since I am not fully recovered it's still the excuse I use for not cleaning up after myself around the house, so naturally it's also the excuse I am using for not cleaning up around the neighborhood (my beautiful, dedicated, hard working wife still cleans up after me, no doubt happy she doesn't have to put on the condom catheters and wipe my [censored] anymore, lol).

Semi seriously though, I woke up sore, stiff, and numb, there was no way I could walk up and down the highway picking up trash, I do have good managerial skills though so I apologize I did not show up and at least take on a management position.

Second, I make my living on the internet and some of my sites and domains started getting ddos attacked right about when I was going to head up for the meeting. I just couldn't pull myself away from the computer, I had to shut some things down, move some things around, and change some IP's until I could figure out who and/or what was attacking my sites.

I have lots of sites and blogs and stuff on the internet so it is not unusual to get targeted by who knows who or what sometimes. Once I got a book sent to my Carson po box addressed to Hugh Mann (Human?), the book was titled "How To Hack Paypal", what was really creepy is it was paid for with <em><strong>my</strong></em> Paypal account but I didn't order it, somebody hacked my Paypal account and ordered it for me, how nice was that? Needless to say I had to make some minor adjustments, change all my Paypal and credit cards, and hide out in my house for a few weeks.

I fully expect to wake up some morning with CarsonView.com full of Cialis, Ugg Boots, and Payday Loan ads and posts, I will do my best to delete them before the rest of you see them, think that I approved the message, and start placing orders.

Anyway, I really am sorry I neglected my community and civic responsibilities yesterday, and I thank everyone that did show up to help keep my neighborhood clean and organized.

<em>Here are my alibi pics.</em> These are really pics of me in the hospital a few years ago.
