    Looks like an attempt to get a viral blog going rather than a real blog. I think the author needs to work on their writing style somewhat to make it more believable. ;)

    quite an interesting blog. Don't know if it's for real. If so, I really pity that guy.

    Yeah, it's definately a stunt to get some bucks. But, it is a rather interesting blog and story...definately worth a check out. The only thing that identifies that this blog isn't legit, well the story at least, is the registration date of the domain: September 2006. The story clearly states the guy didn't have any problems until November/December 2006, so clearly, the story's a spook.

    I do hope that blog becomes successful though. It's such a unique technique, I think, and the story is unique and rather long - definately worth giving the guy credit.

    Kudos to that guy. :)

    It is a unique idea, but imagine if this became a trend and people started just making up crazy stories and blogged about it for some money and fame lol, wouldn't be as entertaining anymore;)

    He plans to sell merchandise... lol

    If I have the mafia behind my ass, I wont have the luxury to design a good looking site and sell stuff on it. I will probably be busy in hiding myself somewhere.

    Hey that's cool. It's even raining in the background. It's fairly new still but given time I think it'll definately become something.
