I’ve Succumbed to the Dark Side

by Ryan Parman • November 27, 2005 • Creating Websites • 4 comments

I’ve succumbed to the dark side. My brother, my sister, my 2 best friends, and another really close friend were all telling me about this great website where you can find anybody you’ve ever known because everybody is on it.

I’m now on MySpace. *Hangs head in shame*

I want to apologize to all of you that had any respect for me as a person, a blogger, a web developer, a music lover, or anything else. I have let you all down. Now I’m just a dork who sits around on long Thanksgiving holidays waiting for other people to send me messages, and trying to think of ways to spruce up my “Space”.

I hope you can all forgive me. BTW, here it is…

Remember though, Ryan, it’s never too late to change your mind. You can always return to the light. :-)
