Some valid excuses for blog absenteeism
I'm not saying that any of these happened to me, but maybe they did.
Incarcerated/institutionalized/incinerated/interred
Paralyzed, and not yet having learned to use one of those mouth-controlled typing devices
Cat ate computer wires
Fell into weird hole in the ground
Away receiving Nobel Prize for Nanomolecularcryogastronomy for invention of Dippin' Dots, Ice Cream of the Future
Coxsackie virus (must include skin peeling off hands and therefore unable to type)
Off adopting Ethiopian baby again
Ate too many cookies
Shipwrecked
Krazy-Glu'ed all fingers to piece of wood
Lost vision in automatic-umbrella accident
Shoelaces caught in escalator teeth
Cat threw up into keyboard
In line at Duane Reade pharmacy counter
Kidnapped by robots
Stuck in tight top in dressing room at clothing store
Storm-chasing
Can't stop looking at cute pictures of baby animals
In sudoku tournament

it's the blog, stupid.
So I was having a little trouble remembering what is so great about having a blog. I know, I know...but it happens. Anyway, I searched on the INTERNET for other bloggers' takes on "the best thing about having a blog," for inspiration. Here's what they said:
From http://blogs.iona.com/newcomer/
Hi Olivier, Thanks very much for taking the time to comment. This is actually the best thing about having a blog. Thanks also for the compliment about our technology.
That is all very sweet and makes me proud to be a blogger.
From http://www.ramiz.learnerblogs.org/
Having a blog has been a whole new experience. The best thing about having a blog is being able to interact with people around the world and being able to see how the work that they do differs from ours.
Interesting. Maybe too interesting.
From http://www.nonprofitmarketingblog.com/
The best thing about having a blog is all the brilliant people who read it.
That may be. I think (s)he may be on to something.
From http://tootruthy.blogspot.com/
You know, the BEST thing about having a blog is that NOBODY even reads it! Do you know what kind of freedom that brings to Yours Truly?
Hmmm.... that may be too. I think Yours Truly may be on to something too.
From http://benjaminbirdie.com/
You want to know the secret best thing about having a blog? Throwing your Lord Julius cap into the ring for another scinitllating installment of Bahlactus.
Huh?? Huh??
From http://allthatcomeswithit.com/
Jason - Indeed, that’s the best thing about having a blog. Whenever anything bad happens you are pleased because now you have something to write about.
Somehow that one doesn't quite work here. And it sounds kind of jerky.
From http://100bloggers.blogspot.com/
How good it feels to write this into the void. How maybe that's what's the best thing about having a blog. I can write down my thoughts and share it with some people, people who don't know me, or know the situation. Who don't have a lot of opinions of who I am, and what I should be. Do not know the history or the people. I feel lighter. I think maybe I can refrain from calling him up and telling him that he makes it nearly impossible to be friends with because he can be so unlovable. He can be so brash and blunt. He has no softness that one can fall into.
Hahahahahahahaha.
From http://socko.blogspot.com/
The best thing about having a blog is seeing all the strange ways people find your site.
Really? That's the best thing??
From http://dead-babies.blogspot.com/
You know the best thing about having a Blog? it makes me realise how damn Senile I've become.
At first I thought "Senile" was some nationality I didn't know about or something.
From http://theist.wordpress.com/
The best thing about having a blog is that you have the capability to pursue tangents, thoughts, courses of logic, etc. to their fullest. However, a striking dichotomy exists in the blogosphere, wherein many individuals may follow this tendency, for a while, but ultimately, most fall off into mindless IM and email habits of short, stringy, half-answers. Impatience rules the day, and far less communication takes place than is necessary in order to properly debate or extrapolate on a given topic.
The best thing about having a blog is being able to tell this person to: shut up!! Shut up!!!

ASCII and ye shall receive
Some people have expressed that they've gotten a little bored with the logo, which, give me a break. But, since this is a famously super-democratic blog, I've decided to offer up a potential change to satisfy the dissenting faction. Here it is, up for discussion.

new technique
I've been learning all these new blogging terms, and here's the first one I'd like to try out:
Bloglet - A small blog entry, usually one or two sentences long.
