This is the second time that Ms. Nee closed comments on her blog before I was able to respond to one of her comments. And it’s funny, but I don’t think she does this very often… if at all, before now. But see, I have a WordPress site of my very own now…
Sure, everyone has a right to censor their own blog, especially from mean or nasty comments. But that’s not the case here…
Don’t worry, Ms. Nee, I won’t be making any more comments on your blog. I sincerely appreciate all the information you’ve posted about Unum. And I assume that your blog is also a marketing tool for your business, helping you obtain clients. But as I told you via email, I can’t afford your rates, so you already know I’m not a prospective client… I assume you would prefer that claimants use your services instead of going it alone or hiring an attorney. Sure, I guess I can understand why you closed down the comment sections where I made posts…
But just because I can’t afford to live in your world, Ms. Nee, doesn’t mean I don’t have opinions worth sharing — which I don’t have to do on your blog, granted. I can respond to your blog posts right here…

And now, my uncensored response:
At first, I was going to say, “Touche, Ms. Nee, and a happy holidays to you, as well.” But that sounded kinda snarky, so here we go:
