Not to be Outdone, a Response for a Consolation Prize--FOLLOW LINK BY CLICKING TITLE

"The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function." - F. Scott Fitzgerald
For the first time in all of my days, I got a dressing down from blogging. In fact, I owe some writing to previous bidders that I've been neglecting. As I type this, I have a paper to write and two tests to study for (ergo my more sporadic writing last week). You'll notice that I did not "write" the last two blogs. I haven't even been able to give my consolation prize bloggers great reviews as of late.
I digress. I received a response from someone, MBA, who wrote the following (and I quote):
HELLO GINA, I-BIBLIOPHILE DESERVED A BETTER DESCRIPTION WHAT I FEEL, THE MOST IMPORTANT THING- ALL THE BOOKS MENTIONED AT I-BIBLIOPHILE LIBRARY ARE FREE DOWNLOADS. ALTHOUGH THE SPACE SEEMS CLUTTERED BUT LET US APPRECIATE THE HARDWORK BEHIND THAT. I ve seen so many blogs on books but the
best one is http://i-bibliophile.blogspot.com/
- easy to use blogdesign[for users]
- no. of books
- brilliant categorisation
- daily updated..
I'm a fan of i-bibliophile Library
Far be it for me to not take the information of someone else who knows more than I about something and not share. So, MBA, (can I just ask you to click on his link, so you can be as amazed about his blog as I am, please?) this is for you. I may see what I-Bibliophile can do for me.
If anyone has a problem with my description of them, they are welcome to tell me. The alternative is to not even do the consolation prize thing--something that is rarely done by other bloggers in the first place and it takes a lot of time and effort to do--but, you know how much I love you, right? My heart couldn't take giving you as much as I can every time I open it to you. (Geez, did that sound like I was a pimp?)
****************************************
I feel like I need to clarify something. I harbor no ill will towards anyone. I checked out I-Bibliofile to see what the blog can do for me. I found information on my essay that was very helpful. I even signed onto this service that is an online library access site. Hopefully this will clear up things. I-Bibliofile is a wonderful site for research. Try it out sometime.
Now I have to make some time for my cop-a-squater before she sends me a smackdown.

MBA, I was only mildly put off. I am grateful that you brought this to my attention. It is like a miracle. I am doing a paper on a weird subject and the only source I had was the thing I am writing about. I needed some background, some analysis, some more sources! I'm not taking your comment as rude (anymore--ha) because you are right: this site is amazing. I posted a note on I-bibliophile of gratitude and high praise. I've bookmarked the site, which not only gave me tons of sources, but hopefully a site that I'm going to bring to the attention of the library to buy as a source.
I was miffed. Anyone who reads this post can see that. In retrospect, however, I think of your note as a gift from God, himself.
I think I was also miffed because I presume you are a Brit, and I am going through hell right now with my British Literature!
Thank you for the dressing down. I appreciate it. I may even get a decent grade because of it.

Thanks for those great words you left at my blog, and then I followed bread crumbs to yours. But I am quite surprised by the episode at your place, but one thing I fear is that due to this dialogue between you and this fellow MBA , goodwill of my blog might not get hurt. I really apprehend that. But at first place you really desrve a praise to give these consolation prizes as in this fast paced world who cares. So dont mind what people say, do what you feel good about.
take care and may god bless you

hey Gina congrats, :)
I would have definitely send you the scholarship :) but I myself am a student and funding my studies with a loan and a scholarship I ve got. Purpose of starting this blog is to arrange for funds for payment of monthly interest on loan I ve taken as the principle can be refunded in installments as I get a job next year

I should not ask this to you but what I feel is this post of yours at first glance, it seems its me who is guilty.... can you do something about that please. Moreover I m planning to create a blogrol and Evolution of Gina will be having top place just because Gina cares to give consolation prizes and this is essentially speaks about your personality and care you have for others in this world

$20. Give me $20. That will save your conscience and save me $20. LOL
Thank you for considering me on you list. You are welcome to poke around and see my other writings and stuff.

I just wanted to say that your post on which I m leaving this comment gives a impression that I ve done something wrong..which is not the case. So you should clarify to your readers thats its that guy MBA who as messed things up... Its him who should be guilty and I'm not... why should I ? as far as 20$ are concerned I m not able enough presently as I myself struggling... but when I m able enough I ll for sure.. By mistake I ve rejected one of your comment.

Bibliophile, my last comment was a joke. LOL is short for laughing out loud.
