Be inspired!

It is my hope that the people who read my blog on a regular basis get some entertainment and enjoyment out of it. I think its great that anyone would be interested in my sometimes twisted mind, and the things I write. And if you don't like it, then you don't have to look. I always include a "let me know if you don't want to be notified" disclaimer when sending out notification, and so far, no one has. If you do, please let me down gently, and say something like "Wow, its really great and all but I am just way to busy with the Ant Farm and all.....
It is also my hope that some of you are inspired to create a blog of their own. Actually, a few folks already have. James, a former co-worker has The Agora, where he shares points of view and other stuff from his life. Check it out at http://jameshi5.blogspot.com/. Also, Cyndi, my brothers fiance has created Nothing comes to Mind, at http://halfblondehalfnot.blogspot.com/. Get busy Cyndi, I want to know what's goin on, even if it seems mundane to you! Put pictures of Darren on there if you have to, just no naked ones please! I stumbled on this one: http://adelaide-in-photos.blogspot.com/ which is pictures from Australia, and this one: http://g4aqbastro.blogspot.com/ that is about space.
I was inspired by my Brother in laws wife, Kristen (what does that make her, my Sister in law in law?) who has been blogging for 3 years now. I love reading what's going on in Tennessee with their ever growing family, and seeing pictures of their beautiful kids. Mike, when you gonna start one punk? You could call it "Throw it in the freezer". Inside joke, sorry.
Anyway, I even randomly peruse blogs by doing a keyword search, such as pimple or rug burn. You can find people that like bluegrass music, love gardening (marijuana) or do Restaurant reviews. The possibilities are endless, as thousands, possibly millions, of folks are blogging. Some are Political, some are Sports related, some are Comedy, and some like mine are pure Genius.
I have added more features as of late that are very cool. New are the playlist jukebox, where I selected 39 songs that I like. Also, the cheeky quote of the day. There are so many gadgets that you can put on your blog space, it is mind blowing. (kind of like a Dead concert on shrooms)
If you need help on how to start, set up an account with Google, and do a search for blogspot.com. There is a step by step guide, and I would suggest starting simple, and then add more stuff when you get comfortable. Its really very easy. As for my Parents, I'll come over and help you, my next day off from work.
I hope some of you will take up the mantle, and blog for the masses. Do it for yourself, do it for your friends, do it for your parole officer, or do it for your country, (unless you live in North Korea, that could be dangerous) just do it today. (tomorrow works too, but its Christmas, so have a Merry one)
As Always,
Faith, Hope & Love
