re: The Blog

I love how well the blog is going. Mr. Hodges has surprisingly been the 2nd highest contributor and Zac did not let me down either. Notably, some of the women have been conspicuously quiet...

Ideally, I'd like this blog to be a way for people to let off steam in a quick, no-spell checking manner. What I mean is, we can have posts that are quick 1-line questions/comments/ideas and hopefully get responses on these. Some of us spend ridiculous amounts of time in front of our computers which makes it easy to respond quickly, but I'd like to see more people talking about more subjects.

Don't get me wrong - I love nothing more than to talk about politics, philosophy, and current events, but none of us are nearly that 1-dimensional and there are literally hundreds of subjects that the people in this blog cover. For example, who but Maura and Dan-O could give us a brother/sister approach on Women's rugby and Ultimate fighting?

Whenever we can, let's give the solid, publishable, fight-to-the-death analysis. At other times, let's write about what we think about when are singing in the shower, taking a shit, or visualizing beautiful mignonettes and tulips in the public gardens.

Best case, this will elicit more writing and responses. Worst case, I wasted 10 minutes and admitted that I enjoy viewing mignonettes. c'est la vie.
