People getting fired because of their blogs?

I couldn't help but notice this story about blogs and people who've been fired from jobs or promoted over them. Then I read the bit about the Boston University (my alma mater) professor getting fired because of writing about a "distractingly attractive student" on a blog. That's just not fair...

Well, I wouldn't ever write anything nasty about my co-workers or my workplace on my blog (the only co-worker I despise recently quit! Thank goodness!) So if any of you happen to stumble across my blog....hello! I love you guys!

However, when it comes to my father-in-law, I reserve the right to say any nasty thing I please...
