Blogitition

Has anybody noticed

that it takes the makings

of a Nobel composition

to just maybe get one

comment out of any-

one on what you wrote?

We pour our little hearts out

to... to whom exactly? Oh! That's

right..to each other.

But everyone's so caught

up in blogeting

that not one of us has

time to tell the other,

"What you wrote was Thought

provoking... Clever... Tender

...Quite arousing... Just a little

bit amusing..." No.

We're all submitting our

own entries to the

Blogitition.

Certainly can't give the other

guy a psychological advantage

(or a few more readers,

God forbid!)

So let that buttjoke keep

on sending updates that we're

5 degrees from Brad, and

we'll pretend acknowledgment

of one another isn't one

degree of human decency.

We'll write, we'll read, and definitely

we'll blogete as if someday your page or

mine will win

the Blogitition.

On Writing

I write this business hoping for something. Hoping that somebody will read it and think, "My goodness, that comes from the mind of a creative, witty, thoughtful person whose ideas I'd like to know more about."

EVERYBODY ON THE PLANET WRITES A BLOG WITH THE THOUGHT THAT MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WILL READ THEIR BLOG AND THINK,

"My goodness, that comes from the mind of a creative, witty, thoughtful person whose ideas I'd like to know more about."

Subject matter.

Style.

Context.

Don't matter.

ONE THING MATTERS.

"My goodness, that comes from the mind of a creative, witty, thoughtful person whose ideas I'd like to know more about."
