Blogging 101

I've been holding back for the longest time from starting a blog, but have finally caved after seeing how fun it would be to just be able to spout off about anything, anytime.
I figured doing this would be much more fun than taking any of the hundreds of "happy pills" available and far more legal than hitting random strangers with large pieces of rubber tubing purchased at the local Rona.
I've been paying close attention to blogs written by friends and family, and have delighted in some of the humour in them. One of these blogs is written by my brother-in-law, Shane, concerning the birth of his second son, Kyron (my nephew). Scroll over to his site at www.calgarydaddy.com, but may you get horrible pink eye if you dare go there before reading mine.
By now I've seen at least 3 different blogs created by Shane and am fairly convinced that he has more of them than he does diapers for the baby.
I don't think I have a chance to win over the female crowd from his site unless I posted a hundred pictures of kittens, puppies, babies, and perhaps chocolate to slowly lure them in. And by that time I'd have no idea what else to do (the things named are all I know that women like).
I've been struggling to think of a general topic to use for most of my blogs, and have landed on the conclusion that it really doesn't matter. Politics, humour, animals, family or why I love my new socks could all be used as topics for discussion, though it would be quite the feat to put them all together and blog about it.
Another friend followed Shane's blogging brick road a short while ago. Jill has finally crossed the realm by taking her twisted mind and putting it in print. Her blog can be found at
http://dont-you-hate-pants.blogspot.com. As before, may you get athlete's foot in the face if you dare cross before finishing your daily reading of my blog :) Speak of the Devil, I think I'll just end it there and let you freaks go about your daily business however normal or demented that may be.

Cheers,

Blake
