		<description>i have the same thing on my blog.  what i like is how the ads go by my content, and usually it's just rehabs, drink mixing sites, and how to get out of  DUI.  However, when i was posting stuff about wanting to wrestle a midget in lime jello, i had ads up on how to meet single little people.  fucking comedy.</description>

		<description>Apparently, you can make some pretty good cash with paid writings. Especially if you have a high google rank. 

I know a guy who runs a site, www.mwillett.org, who makes about $250.00 a month with google ads.... but he has google PR out the ying yang and thousands of visitors a day.

For us little wee ones, that don't want to put hours a day getting good rank, I don't think google ads are for us...</description>

		<description>The business geek in me told me that it was an opportunity cost to NOT place ads on the site, therefore I checked it out.  However, even if adSense was successful on my site, I think it would have taken the site to a place where I would be tailoring my content to drive ad revenue, and that just isn't where I wanted to go with this.  

I can see a different site geared completely for revenue generation as a possibility, if I had the time, but for now, I would rather write for me rather than revenue (like I had the choice anyway :) ).</description>
