I can't speak too much to cut and paste news blogging, or link blogging. But, if you don't blog, lemme tell ya, it really can give you some wonderful things. When it's clicking .. well, it's clicking. For better or worse, widely read, or no - you're creating something. And when it's good, it's really good - inside, I mean. And the whole WTW thing seems to be catching on and I'm real pleased with that. We get to have some fun behind the scenes as well as share some traffic and some links. Ultimately, my fundamental concept of blogging is one of community. A medium where people can, for better or worse, get together share ideas, thoughts, even art - across blogs, especially. And that's what I'm digging about WTW and why I hope it keeps going the way it has started within the group. If you're looking for that kind of deal and have a sense of humor and thick skin, jump in, you're welcome. But we are a rangy bunch at times. Heh!
But there's another thing about blogging you should know if you don't blog. Sometimes there's very little else that will make you appreciate your real life because when it sucks, man, it really can suck. Like when you have a great idea, spend far too much effin' time working on it and turn it into the most pathetic pieces of crap you've ever done. And that pretty much sums up THIS FREAKING POST BELOW!!!!!!!
But you know what?
I can laugh about it!
Why, you might ask?
Well, because I'm a F*cking dancer!! ; ) And there's always another excellent blog like Ghost of a Flea to pick up the slack when you miss a step or two.
See ya tomorrow. I'll be better, I promise.
This was suppose to be Episode 1: Conspiracy at Pink Rock. Instead it yields this wonderful lesson. If you do blog ... and you ATTEMPT humor on occasion ... and something gets so far away from you that you reach for a fart joke ... give it up. Because there really is nothing more pathetic in the world of wit, sarcasm and humor than a GODDAMNED FART JOKE! But, I digress.
My God, what hath I wrought? (shaking head) lol What a bitch!
Bel;ieve me, there are some excellent posts at all of the blogs below. Please be sure and check them out if you can.
Also, Jeff at Protein Wisdom has one of his Jesusland posts up. I didn't see the series archived, but he has been doing them for quite awhile. Don't think he's ever told anyone where he finds those crazy pics. But they're always hilarious. Be sure and check out all of the above you can.
This is CLEARLY an attempt to put yourself at the top of the WTW blogroll.
It's THURSDAY now, dammit! Serious posting must resume! What kind of CITIZEN JOURNALIST [®pw] are you?!

Dan,
I nearly hurt myself. That may be the funniest thing on the web ... ever. The pics of the NE white whale were the ultimate (white) capper.
