Woohoo! I (we?) got blogged about. My roommate Dann has started a blog of his own, and discussed this blog in his post entitled “Why I’m Better Than You.”
Quote:
“Mark's blog is interesting by itself, but that's not really why I read it. He's living with me at the moment, so most of the time he's blogging at his computer a full five feet away from me as I blog on mine. I read it because he keeps such interesting company. His friends and family routinely show up and comment on a wide variety of topics. I guess you would have to know his friends and family (or at least read their comments) to fully appreciate it. It's a bit like what you would get if you had a horrible nuclear accident involving a set of encyclopedias and an episode of Seinfeld. And some chickens thrown in for good measure. Shake vigorously and refrigerate after opening. Kind of like that. Except smarter.”
I guess it’s not really much of a review of my blog as it is a review of the blog comments I get. Since the comments are seldom even related to what I blog about, I guess I can’t really take much credit for anything but hosting the site and picking cool friends. So, thank you, I take credit for both.
Since it seems the sideshow is rapidly becoming the main attraction for my blog, I want to take this opportunity to encourage my regular posters to keep posting, and to poke any lurkers and say, “Participate!” You hear me, Mom and Dad? Uncle Wallace? Feel free to jump in! I’ve started checking my blog comments as often as I check my email (that is, four to five times a day). If things slack off, I might have to stir things up with a little controversy!
Well, maybe not. I guess I’m not really much of a controversial person. I’ll have to rely on Sunny to get things going, I guess. :-) In the meantime, though, I just wanted to express my appreciation to everyone, for paying attention to my daily ramblings, and slogging through it with me when I pull out another “describe an ordinary object” blog for spacefiller.
I’m hoping to punch up the website with a little HTML, and add some links along the side to my friends’ blogs. I’m also hoping to put a couple of links to the “good stuff,” the blog entries that stand out, so visitors’ first impressions won’t be one of those “what I ate for lunch today” posts ruminating on the consistency of Blue Plate mayonnaise versus Bama. So, if anyone has any suggestions for which blog entries they like the best, put your suggestions up in the comments section. I’ll see if I can’t put up links to the best three to five entries.
If anyone has any other suggestions on how improve this blog, please let me know (i.e., post it in the comments section). I’m always happy to entertain ideas.
