Not that anyone has or will read this anytime soon, but I have some news. I have reinstated my
Carbonated Pop-culture blog. Not that anyone cares, but I found a purpose for it finally.
Now if you're asking if I am sorry or regret deleting my old blog the answer is no. The only thing I can't get back that I really wanted was the original http address. Even though the one I have now is better. The other thing I guess I missed was a place to play and test things out with html code and such.
To any future bloggers, I still recommend deleting your blogs if they put yourself in a negative light or somehow embarrass you in your future careers.
So, now you're updated and you can go bug off.

Now THAT was a good essay, thanks Michael. I found his criticisms to be to the point, well articulated, and logically reasoned.
As for listening to the nay-sayer about the "songwriting course", please do. I have only three words that will support my position: John Mayer wannabes.
do the world a favor, and stop this bad idea before it starts.

I was doing a little research into what makes a blog and I was seriously thinking about the content of all blogs. Perhaps it was motivation I was looking for, maybe it was some sound sage advice. Either way, what I found was a little bit perplexing and at the same time inspiring.
It prompted me to delete my
Carbonated Pop-culture weblog and yet keep my
Absolute Tea one. So in a sense this post is to let Dr. Morgan know that he can remove it from the sidebar.
Anyways, I'm still not sure what to make of
this essay I found that is all about weblogs in general. It's clever, it's harsh, and it was just plain entertaining to read.
I must warn you though that if you click on the link you will be subjected to coarse, adult (and frankly rude) language.If you do choose to read it I suggest you don't take anything personally and read the document all the way through. This way you can comment about it as I would love to hear what you fellow bloggers think.

I think it's a wonderful idea. Don't listen to the party-pooper!
