Blogito ergo sumo...
Blogito ergo sumo
(I blog, therefore I am a big fat wrestler)
But I haven't been able to communicate to our senior computer users the attraction of bloggging. We've tried to demonstrate blogs more than once in our computer classes and at our weekly computer club. There was absolutely no interest whatsoever. Maybe it's due to my presentation style (or lack thereof). Tried to point out usefullness for families, clubs, any group to communicate with all without multiple emailings, reply-alls,etc. Also, the journal/diary aspect of it . There is a long tradition of journal writing: think Anais Nin, Anne Frank, Courtney Love, Samuel Pepys, and on and on. (There ought to be some abbreviation convention for "on and on", implying not only that there are more (et seq) but it's a long list ( ad naus.)).
I'd like to think it wasn't a matter of being too difficult, although I do find b2evo blogistics trickier to use than, say, Blogger. I've suggested to management here the possibility of a Workshop, or Training Camp, or Blogger Forum - - mebbe something will come of it. Anyone else interested in such? Understood that CCT is a commercial site, and the free blogging helps to generate traffic (eyeballs? clicks?), but mebbe our blogs would be more widely read and have more varied appearance, and include graphics, etc if more of us knew how, and tips, and tricks, and workarounds, or mebbe there would be more new bloggers.
Anyhow, I am indeed eagerly looking forward to next Wednesday (no, not disgusted voter syndrome - - my social security comes in the second Wednesdays)

I forget the actress (I'm thinking Pia Zadora, but I could be wrong)... but she was portraying Anne Frank in a play, and doing a terrible job of it.
How bad was she doing?
When the Nazis came on stage, someone in the audience yelled, "She's up in the attic!"

I was small, but I was in superb shape- I won every sort of race they held during the tryouts, and my stamina was unmatched. I even had the French accent down, which made me an instant heel.
They were quite fond of me until they saw "concussion" on my medical forms. All bets were off at that point, and that was pretty much the end of my career as a TV star.
They kept me around as a writer. If you were a fan of the show, I wrote the "character arcs" for Jade and Lotus, as well as the storyline for the feud between the Disciplinarian and Bronco Billie.
I got three checks from them, and the last one bounced.
