Blogging Dilemma

Hmm, so it's been a while since I updated this blog.  No wonder really, this whole blogging thing is becoming a bit of a chore.  Yes, it's nice to get hits and even spam saying "your site is so well organised, thank you for the information" is welcome every now and again.  But come on.  

After all the hoopla of Web 2.0 where grown-ups discuss grown-up issues in a childlike manner, you have to think twice about the whole thing.  I tell you what.  A competition springs to mind.  Complete the following tie-breaker in 13 words or less.  

"I think blogging is the best thing since sliced bread because… ".  Comments on a postcard to, well, the comment box below.  

Your prize will be a surprise but you will be well rewarded.  Please note that judges decision is final.  Emm, that's me.

What a pernicious little colour orange is, if you look at it long enough it makes you feel like a pole bent in two teetering at breaking point.  Or a dutch person for that matter.

Take for instance Pure Cork Boy.  A decent site with witty aspersions and sometimes ingenious captioning but then he goes and spoils it all by splaying it with something stupid like orange.  And a 3 week old, rotting mandarin orange at that.  C'mon in all fairness like.   Ok, Ok, it's only on the header but on closer inspection you might also notice that all links are also branded with this disgusting and exorcise-seeking colour. 

Not only that but he has also drawn Betty the Sheep into the Orangevil arena.  Betty, who's too naive and innocent (in the world of colour definition in any case…) to know any better and only wants to bleet her way through the blogosphere but PCB has twisted that with his own hankering for that execrable colour. 

Who wants to read orange?  Reality check, like.

I have always considered that if are to do something, you should at least ensure that you do it correctly.  I mean, there is no point perambulating through town aimlessly if what you need is a pair of socks and a wooly jumper now is there?  To this end, I have "borrowed" some nice gifs from a nice site called www.myfakelife.com to which there is no connection whatsoever with this site.  I was trying to copy them to my wordpress account but I was never a blog of high morals or concience so I may as well just copy it, right?  Like I said, there is no connection with that awful site except a coincidental name but then again, I betcha Betty the Sheep has the same problem with the other sheep called Betty but they don't take her to court over it!  Reality check, like.  

What the hell is reality?

Is it just me or is reality just a whish-wash mash of megalomaniacs meandering through their “real” lives?  I don’t know, perhaps it is just me but have you ever wondered about the foibles of people walking down the street towards you and how they live with themselves?  This is the first of many posts on these people.  C’mon, you know who you are…
