A Couple of Blog Links and Rambling

Due to several startling accusations that this blog is beginning to resemble a "livejournal", I feel I need to respond. Firstly, the whole point of this endeavor was for Caleb and I to write about whatever the hell we wanted to, and I'm sticking to that point. Secondly, I don't ramble on about my problems or whine about anything. Anything that I write is going to have shades of my personal experiences in it, because, well... I wrote it. But, if I did want to complain about my love troubles or how I sunk a really sweet jump shot in basketball the other day, I will. Lastly, don't take offense to any of this... I enjoyed the comments and know they were not meant with any ill will. You know, to be safe, just don't be offended by anything I ever say.

I have a couple of blog links today of a literary nature. Both sites are really hilarious (at least if you find bad grammar amusing).

The first is Left Behind at the Fishbowl. Paul found this somewhere and I came across the link on his blog. The premise is that readers find random writing and submit it, then it is corrected by the author and posted. The writing is just atrocious and the blog author's corrections witty and funny. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys writing at all, but I'm pretty sure most people would get a good laugh out of it... unless you're a terrible writer. It might not be quite so funny then. Plus, I think the author is from Michigan.

The second blog is Passive Aggressive Notes. Just go to the site if you want to see what it is about, I'd rather not fumble around with too much of an explanation. Just believe me when I say it's funny. "Is that a question of a command!?!?"

Next week sometime BSD will return to regularly scheduled programming.

...which means I'll have something a bit more substantive to post than news articles, blog links, pictures and generic rambling about the blog itself.

I actually have submitted to Left Behind at the Fishbowl. A friend of mine's terrible paper on some Indian Tribe from his senior year of high school is there.

In the fishbowl there is also a board where they post all the pictures they find left in the scanners. When I last looked at it there were more pictures of cats than of people...

Lol, that's great. Is this fishbowl some sort of copy room at U of M?
