to blog or not to blog

You know I was blogging before blogging was a word known to me. I picked it up from photo.net and Phil's travel logs. At the time he didn't call them blogs. I dunno wht he calls them now I don't read him anymore. When I discovered blogging I was not a member of corporate america. I was a member of serious slacker had some money and wasn't doing dick tech bubble craze of the early 2000's. That sounds wrong. It doesn't sound like "the 80's" I mean 2000's (say it out loud, go on you know you want to) just doesn't cut it. Anyways I blogged. I called it "in motion" yes it's there in the links on the side. Before that I wrote some stuff on AstroWonders about some trips I took. That was pre-blog for me.

So then I joined Corporate America. (Or the money is running out and JR is a danger to himself and others) and I redid my blog and called it "Back-Talk" by the way it's one word and I spelled it wrong, but there ya go. My deal. I will rationalize the lack of fixing it by saying that people (all 2 of you) are used to it the way it is.

I digress. Like I do.

When I started back-talk people were getting fired over blogging... a lot... so I've always been careful not to blog about work. Policy this and that was all over Corporate America about what you couldn't blog.

Corporations get wise to stuff. Well the ones that survive. I'm currently at a convetion (I won't say which one, in face we'll call it, "not teched 2006" k?). During my seaker/staff training in one of the hand outs or emails or some shit I dunno, it said, "be sure to blog about your experiece" and I did a WTF? (we'll call that "not, 'what the fuck")

OK little aside. Be fucking careful who you tell you are blogging. K? i mean holy mother of god, I'm bitching to this guy about what I'm writing about ... well you just read it... and he's the fucking technical manager of the whole show. Great. At least he doesn't have my name. Jesus christ on a cracker.

So where was I. Oh yes. Corporate america started seeing the numbers on blogs and why they are so important. I actually say to the guy, (yes back peddal) "Of course I'm only blogging positive stuff." I'm such an idiot. yes a danger to myself and others.

So OK that completly hijacked my post. Well for fucks sake, I'll just shut up now, k?

take two for this whole post: I'm not gonna blog it. Nope. Close up shop for a few huh? Oh fuck that noise....
