blogicide

oh... my... word.....

i apparently have been committing blogicide since the day i first posted abt kc

There's a stereotype that goes like this: When somebody running a website has run out of useful things to say, they post a picture of their cat. When they don't feel like writing one thousand words on their blog, there's always the option of posting Fluffy and pretending that she's somehow of interest to anybody. When the boiler of thought is out of steam, out wheezes a kitten.

Which leads us to the cabal of young on-line writers in Canada who are pushing the phrase "posting the cat" to describe the moment when a website passes its prime.

"The truth is that most blogs are just personal vanity projects of little consequence, the Internet equivalent of Christmas newsletters," Nestruck says. "And nothing pulls the curtain back and reveals that dirty truth more than when a blogger posts a picture of his or her cat."


of course, this blog is a vanity project for me
i wont argue that fact
its for me, am not writing to impress anyone
if someone wants to see what my life is like, they may do so
and right now, my life consists mostly of my cat

this is sorta funny in a way, tho
this article is the first entry that i saw,
when i did an msn search for cats in blogs
they sure know how to knock a person down!
