Title Goes Up Here

So, I was at my favorite trivia site, Gullible.info and found this little tidbit:

"• 18 percent of blog posts indexed by Google blog search begin with the word "so"."

So I'm sorry, I just don't have time to do much writing of any sort, even though I have been so graciously "Phaved" by J F Z. (Thanks!)

So, anyway, I have to make a choice; either keep the blog open and only update whenever I have the chance and not lose too much sleep about the quality of the writing or quit the blog.  After I thought about it I decided that I have too much to say, just not enough time to say it all in, I just feel guilty that people come here and there is nothing new to see or read.  We have been working a lot of hours so the girls can go to the Winter Heritage conference, similar to the one we host here in the Springs during the Summer months.  The whole church youth group is going and has been having bake sales and things but it is not going to be near enough.  Normally, when I had the laptop, this would mean a lot more writing time.  I can write poetry in my notebooks but to write stories and blog entries I really need a computer.  Plus, I have been sleeping in of late, sometimes till 4 AM.  By the time I read Carter and Gronk's e-mails, check Drudge and Accuweather it's time to make sandwiches and head out the door.  Plus, in our "spare" time, Carter and I have been founding The Republic of Bob.

So, Wetpaint.com is kind of a fun place.  You can set up your site so that anyone can add to it, so that only account holders can add to it or so that it is by invitation only.  There is a link on the homepage to apply to be a writer on our site.  I think it requires starting an account with them, but I am not sure.  You can make comments anonymously, however.  Since I am the most-high ruler and great creator I have final and complete deletion powers.  Carter is the close-second in command Grand Poobah in charge of all things military and covert and The Really High Up There Minister of Ministries including being the Muy Big Honcho of the Division of the Bureau of Repetitious Redundancy Department of Duplication and Reiterance.  Gronk is in charge of rolling rocks and since he is so old and a time-traveling contemporary of Gak and Throk, he is the Minister of Rock and Roll.  Carter wants to set up a parliament, which would probably be a good way to bring in tax money and make the few rules we might have.  I haven't gotten to use my Veto & Delete power yet.

So, anyway, Wetpaint has some serious drawbacks in the editing department but does have the redeeming quality of being fun.

So, as the good book says, "So!  So!  Suck your toe/All the way to Mexico/If you don't I don't care/'Cuz you don't wash your underwear!"

So ... guess I'll have to check out this Wetpaint place. Just so I know where it is. And so I know where to find you. And Carter.

So, what about Gronk?

Soooo Hi Herb or rather Howdy! Aw don't worry about posting so often. I am of mind to post once a week only. I'm so tired during the work week and like you I have so many things I need to do blogging is not on the top list. Will have to check out the new site. Hope you have a great time at the winter conference.

Chrys, Abby, Wetpaint is really a lot of fun and has a lot of potential. I think it would be excellent for the community diet blog Pen started.

Kevin, I plan to e-mail you in a few days, but making long short, I wrote my first webpage entirely with "Notepad" so My issues are, perhaps, different than others.

So, don't feel bad about not updating. Your blog should really be for you, so you shouldn't feel guilty about not having time to update. So, I've lost a few blogfriends because I think they felt too pressured to write stuff when they just weren't up to it, so, anyway, I'd hate to lose you that same way.

So, wetpaint huh?

Hi Herb! We're glad to see you're using Wetpaint. With regard to comments, you can change the setting to require folks to register/sign in before leaving comments if you so wish. And if you have a moment to let us know where we're falling short on the editing side of things, we'd love to hear it...we're always trying to get better. If you want, write directly to kevin at wetpaint dot com. Best, Kevin

Hmmm ... Wetpaint looks interesting. And, note that I resisted the temptation to begin my comment with "So, ..."
