My first comments…!
blog March 1st. 2009, 9:13pm…are a lot more underwhelming than I had thought they were going to be.
Public notoriety always tastes sweet like coconuts
Let’s be real: we all start blogs in order to get read. If we didn’t want anybody to read these things, we’d all be authoring Word docs locally stored on our computers. But we don’t. We publish these bad boys for the entire world (or at least the wired world) to read.
So there’s a certain sense of exhilaration when you get comments on your blog post. Which is why I got excited when my Gmail informed me that someone had commented on one of my blog posts. “Wow,” I thought, “My sitemeter tells me I’ve only had less than 100 hits, but somebody thought what I wrote was so compelling that they had to, just had to comment? That’s satisfying.”
So imagine my diappointment when I saw that my first comment was from none other than the username “cialis online,” and their comment was soon followed by two from “levitra online.”
At least SPAM bots find me interesting. That’s a lot more than I can say for some of the former blogs I’ve started.
And hey, at least it wasn’t my mom saying how proud she is that she raised me. I mean, Ma, feel free to comment, but you don’t need to digitally pinch my cheeks. Unless absolutely nobody comments, then feel free to leave a comment about how proud you are.

Loved the making tea link. Very funny!
I could not access the Ogilvey link you sent nor comment yet but loved the successive photos.
