So this is it, eh? I'm a blogger now. I've stepped into the Geocities of the twenty-first century: the Information Super Blogway. I'm one of those people.
What does some lowly college boy have to bring to a blogniverse dominated by political pundits, technological pundits, economical pundits, middle school girls and, to a lesser degree, culinary pundits, you may ask? Well boy are you in for a treat!
I mostly just think of silly shit and write about it. Like the word blog. THAT is some silly shit. For a wonderful attack on the word blog, I refer you to Maddox (First blog link! "blink"? Yeah, let's go with "blink". I'm such a revolutionary!). With such a goofy word so new to our collective vocabulary, I think it would be fun add a whole slew of words and phrases into our lexicon. For instance:
Blog Cabin: Perhaps this is cyberspace's second-wave response to Internet cafes? Instead of a place you can go to get some coffee and surf the web, at Blog Cabins you can write about random shit on the 'net, and they give you pancakes or something cabiny like that. Maybe some flannel.
Bilbo Bloggins: Way back when, there was a little hairy dude who adopted the kid from Flipper and saved middle earth, AND he wrote about it online every day. He was a bloggin' Hobbit, or "Bloggit", if I may.
Blogger: Now I know what you're thinking: "Blogger is a word. It's a website! Look six inches higher!" but nonono, not that kind of blogger. This kind of Blogger is a video game, where our hero runs across the street avoiding cars so he can successfully get to the Blog Cabin where he writes about how he almost got hit by a bunch of cars. Surely this would be a very interesting blog.
Got some more? Blogswell Cogs, perhaps? Blogavad Gita, maybe? Leave 'em in the comments.
And so concludes my first blog. Rockin'.

Congratulations, saxjazzerello, you have now acquired your first blog comment! And who better to get it from than your good ol' tall-hugging buddy from Texas! Sadly, I do not have any witty new blog words to add to your repertoire, but due to the highly amusing nature of your blog (and because my job involves sitting in a cubicle and staring at a computer screen for 6 hours a day, so I might as well have something slightly more interesting to look at than insurance policies), I will now be reading it religiously. Do not disappoint me, or I may be forced to diss you on the interwubs, which we all know is the ultimate diss.
Happy blogging! And come back to Tejas soon.
Your tall friend,
Shelley
p.s. I do not actually have a blog on here; I was forced to get an account so I could comment on the blog that my Shakespeare professor set up for my class. Laaaame.

i am disappointed in your first blog post. hopefully next time you can do better.
sincerely, isabella
