Thanks for the rundown.

a flash summary through my eyes:

point 1: Sadly I don't know what 'newsfeed' is/was. I'm older and cybernetically stunted. It could be in this case that what I don't know, may not...

point 10: no more profanity. No prob.

point 11: Hooray for sexy clowns, no, I'm not kidding. Makes me happy. At seventy even a pic as inane, (harmless), as this one finds within me a corner to cheer.

point 13: The direct line to Ev isn't for real is it? Is it? Is there a reason this was number 13...? No, seriously...

Good stuff JJ and much appreciated.

I do have a question that you might have an answer for and if you have a moment. I live in Guatemala. Medium says they won't pay writers from Guatemala (for whatever tecnicality), no judgment here. But yeah, I'd sure like to think that if my writing ever gets to a point where I might actually get paid, even pennies, then I'd sure like to know how to get around the red tape.

Any ideas?

Saludos and thanks again.
