Today is the perfect example of why I need a co-blogger. I have nothing really substantial to say. I am busy at work. But I want to put up something.
Maybe I can do like Ace and make up co-bloggers with their own shtick, but since this is not exactly a humor blog I don't know how well that would work. I mean about the only person I could pretend to blog as would by my two-year old and you would all probably get tired of hearing about the latest exploits of Bob and Larry and pee pee in my diaper.
I could do like Michelle from ASV, but my life is not nearly as interesting as hers. I mean she is close to getting in a fight every time she leaves her home. She has lots of crazy life experiences to draw from. Me, I grew up on a turkey farm and live out in the country in a house behind my parents.
Should I steal from Joe at Evangelical Outpost and write some huge philosophical debate initiating post on Intelligent Design starting the post off with a reference to Winston Churchill's grammar. Follow that with a post on a child actress in some obscure French film or a lament at the latest country musicians? I really don't know enough about Churchill's grammar to tie that in with anything, I have no idea about child actors in French films and I stopped listening to country music several years ago, so I don't know if Big and Rich are bad pseudo-country.
Maybe I could be like Wizbang and do an in-depth look at the typography of a document at CBS news and then follow that up with a nude celebrity photo (nope, no link). I don't have much typography experience and I don't think my wife would enjoy me having much experience with the other.
Powerline might be the way to go. I could write about the impact of the blogosphere on the media and then wax about the importance of Motown music. I don't exactly get the media attention that the Powerline guys get (I don't really deserve it either). I do like to listen to some Motown, but I could not begin to tell you the cultural impact it has had on our nation. Again, I could tell you all about the best line from Go Dogs Go by P.D. Eastman, but I am not sure how wide the understanding for that cultural reference goes.
I suppose I could be like him, but apparently professors have more time than other college employees. I don't think I could find all the stuff he finds. I certainly don't know anything about nanotechnology.
So, alas, poor reader you are forced to read uninteresting me. The good thing is that I have filled up a post with lots of links and not really said anything at all. The even better thing is that while I was typing up this worthless thing, I actually came up with something to talk about. Yeah! Sorry to have wasted your time.
