about angela_the golo editor

I am the Managing Editor of GOLO. I've worked in broadcast, print and online news for 15 years in multiple markets including Cleveland, Tampa, West Palm Beach and Ft. Lauderdale. I moved to the area with my family in February 2007 and have had the pleasure of watching this community grow from its infancy.

There is still so much more to come here at GOLO, so stay tuned. I think you're gonna like it here.

Hi Angela! Thanks for the mousepad offer. Honestly, If I have one, I'll proudly keep it out on my desk here at work. I screamed something this morning when I saw I was post #22. My coworkers came running around, and one who is always reading my blogs said, "I should have known, you're blogging again!"

since you are not from these parts, I thought you might be interested in this place

http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/5408785/

it's in my hometown, actually

Good Day Angela!

Quick question? Why can I not see the groups I am apart of on my page anymore? I have to actually go into my groups icon to click on the specific group. When I used to be able to actually just click on it directly from my page. Does that make sense? LOL.

Hi Angela. Umm, yea. Can you delete this profile?

Angela,

Here was the comment

"Secty Holder could be a card-carrying member of GOLO's "Hate America First" group, which seems to be growing by leaps and bounds..."

And the blog it came from.

http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/5416065/

Angela, I put a disclaimer on that comment. Hockey's blog is just another retaliatory blog that he posts to harass me and another GOLOer (ladyblue) I don't report abuse to his behavior, because I consider it to be the childish behavior that you thought would be remedied with the ignore button, and I know that you don't intend to referee and personal issues between people.

Angela, the "blogger" has now changed their post to indicate this is not a real group.

I do wonder, though, if accusing folks you don't agree with of "hating America first" really promotes any type of civil discussion on GOLO. Seems to me it is just meant to incite and invite name calling and disagreement.

suppp lil lady!!!

/*CC tipps over sized cow boy hat*/

how ya bizzzzz? for chizle manizzle

Angela, did you delete my son Red Bear? Sure hope not.

Have a great week!

I'm glad you took a peek. Scotland Neck is my home town. Not much to it, very small town, no stop light, no movie theater, lol, however, a few years ago, the bird sanctuary opened after many years of work. It's not well known here but from what I understand people from all over the world visit to view the birds there. It's about an hour and a half from Raleigh, an easy day trip. Sad to say, as much as I go see my parents, I've never been. Grumpy and I are planning a visit!

I see the bloody face of the dead Iranian girl has returned to grace no less than a lunch time blog (nothing like a dead woman bleeding from the face to get your appetite up, eh?)

I wonder why no one has flagged the pic yet?

Lunch break?

Angela,

you know i am not one to complain about much of anything. I Rarely give a #### well you know about much of anything. I just posted a blog about email signatures and was curious as to what other people used as theirs.

1) The photo was not offensive by NO means

2) The comments were not tasteless

3) The blog was not tasteless

Now please enlighten me on WHY this blog was pulled?

Thanks

Angela...could you step over here for a minute? Is there already a group like the one we are suggesting?

http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/5426285/

"but you also know that you straddle the fence often."

I got marks to prove it too, ;)

Ty for your reply Ang.

Thanks Angela! Maybe I will make the "Our pick" list one day! :-)

Angela my dear,

when are you posting a blog about the most commented blogs from last week or so.

I've been working hard for this....

thanks,

CC

Oh, cool. Somehow I missed it...

I can't believe I hadn't done the handshake thing......

I'm really getting tired of this person and his sniping, unprovoked personal attacks ...

"Elcid, I've no idea how you maintain such sangfroid despite the pompous one-track minded BS you were just subjected to, but kudos for holding to your truth with courtesy and aplomb./endquote"

It's easy to do when you have no moral compass... (and when you are a totally fictionalized online persona)"

Seen here:

http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/5430277

Was too lazy yesterday after staying out late! Have to start up laptop to transfer the pics. Bart took excellent pics.

Awww thanks! I am trying to become a better member of this GOLO community..LOL

When I started begging for them I didn't realize the rules. But my old man said he would never go so I almost hoped I wouldn't win. Then Ginger hatched her plan and it all worked out. Of course the Bf was like, you are going with WHO? What about your girlfriends? HAHA!

Hi Angela, thank you so much for the tickets. I had such a wonderful time. Not only the concert but hanging out with such fun golo friends. Could you pass along my appreciation to your bosses for giving me this opportunity. I did love it.

btw, like Mimi, I too, just saw free tickets/the bands playing and started gabbing away. I'm sorry. I promise to read the rules next time.

Cool Angela! I saw me on the "Our Picks" I am officially a GOLOer!

I've tried to post a blog and for some reason it won't post. Any reasons why?

Thanks

i dunno if you were still watching your blog about 401(k), but i responded to you in there. sorry it took so long, had a meeting with cfo and ceo. while your blog was important, i kind of had to prioritize them a bit higher today.

;)

We had a great time!! what wonderful people they were.

Angela, I am sorry to hear about your grandmother, but be careful on who you tell around here. Read the blog about Obama wants to let the old folks die and some of the comments on there. People have no respect for life anymore.

I will do that! I'm going to re-post it again tomorrow and see what happens. LOL! Good idea Angela! Thanks!! I think alot of people will completely avoid the blog. I've noticed that alot of my GOLO friends avoid commenting on the subject when I'm around. I dont know why, I wouldnt stop being their friend or anything.

I know, I did the blog about Ed. DUH! Thanks for the reminder.

Thank you for the Doobies/Bad Company Tickets. And yes Angela we had a blast.... another "GOOD GOLO" event! Thanks again!

Bart

No thanks. He's coarse, rude, prone to using vulgar and disgusting language and, in a word, common. The sort of person I'd call the police to have removed from my drive. Those may be qualities you value, but they're not ones I find worthwhile. Everything about him offends me, and I think I'm entitled to feel that way. As I said before, deal with it. elcid89 GOLO member since September 6, 2007 June 22, 2009 6:36 p.m. is this some of that libelous behaviour outlined in terms of service?

I, on the other hand, have no use for him and wouldn't pee on him to put the fire out. It is what it is. Deal with it. elcid89 GOLO member since September 6, 2007 or this.....How much longer is the GOLO community going to have to put up with this man, whose arrogance is only exceeded by his conciet?????

sorry. i should of kept my mouth shut about the counter.

Hi Angela,

I posted a blog this morning that I had second thoughts about so I hid it. I wanted to know if there is a way to delete our own blog posts. The blog itself I think was tasteful but it touched on a topic that inspired some sophomoric comments. I should have known better.

Thanks

Good morning, Angela. Just saw the movie "Up" yesterday and it was absolutely wonderful. One of the best in quite some time in case you and your children are looking for an outing this weekend. http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/up/ Lessons for adults in there, too! LOL

Thanks and HUGS for all you do!

Angela...I just read about your grandma in the "keep us posted" group. She's in my thoughts and prayers (and you, too). Mom just went thru this last winter (found out right before Christmas), and she is ok. Keep me posted, ok?

I read about your Grandma. Will keep her in prayer.

hello

Morning. Your grandmother is in my prayers. I am a huge advocate of breast cancer research. I do the raleighstrides walk, the link is on my page. You can walk in her honor and help raise money for breast cancer research. If there is any information she may need such as help getting to her appointments or if she doesnt have insurance please let me know. I may be able to help.

The profile counter was being abused Ladyblue. You can't give some folks anything.

LOL now that's the truest statement ever made on here. {LB shakes her head}

Just saw the post about your mom.I'm so sorry, will be praying for her.Angela keep your faith and trust in God as he heals to day s he did yesterday.God bless you,keeping you in my prayers as well.

are you familiar with the caringbridges website? your grandmother may benefit

just wanted you to know that the "counter" blogs were all in fun. You have to do what you have to do with the website and I'm good with whatever. Just wanted you to know that

I know what you said is true but it's a long Monday and it was fun to "whine",,we all need to let off steam every so often. It was all in fun.

As for the name change, my son sang that song by Brad Paisley "I'm so much cooler online" when I was laughing at the antics on golo the other day and he wanted to know what I was literally laughing out loud over. When I tried to explain it to him, he just sang louder and louder. So I gave up.

I thought it would be funny to put it in my name for a day or so

Hey Angela - Just a quick question, not a complaint (I know that bothers you-lol). Would it be possible for Tracker's blogs to post to the Golo side. Somedays it seems there's not enough humor and I've enjoyed them so far (although I do have to "search" them by the time I remember to read.

Thanks!
