Lite Reading

July 26th, 2004 by littleBIGchris

I sure as hell get sick of the same old faces and the same old stories in this blogworld sometimes, I’m sure you all do too. Or maybe you just get bored and want something new to look at while the plumber rips up your bathroom floor to fix the leak coming from your tub… that might just be me though (he’d better put those tiles back, man). Fortunately there is never a shortage of new blogs and webpages being created by cybernewbies with fresh content and outlooks to keep us happy. These are some newer (well, new to me) blogs that I just started reading, definately worth my mention and worth a little peek or two from you. Bookmark as you please.

WilliamShatner.com - Can you believe Captain Kirk has a blog? Old folks just make me laugh. His entries are really short but they seem really thoughtful and genuine, plus he gets a shitload of comments. I really liked the one he did about seeing Mr. Spock again.

Incredible Hulk’s Blog - Sample from a recent entry: Hulk also have to say that Hulk will have Iron Man help him remove comments from diary if puny humans do not stop acting like they are people they are not! THIS MEANS YOU, FAKE JOHN KERRY AND FAKE MONKEY PRESIDENT AND FAKE STAN LEE AND FAKE BILL BIXBY AND FAKE OTHER PEOPLE. I love it. I like the way he writes, simple and in broken english with no so many links littering up his content. Welcome to the blog world, Hulk. I like your hair.

LimeFizz.net - Ali really likes Lime. “When I was a kid my grandmother would bring over green and red suckers for my sister and I. I always wanted the green ones, which were lime-flavoured. I love lime-flavoured things. Now, I’m obsessed. It’s a shame.” I love blogs like this. She’s funny, and I love stopping in every few days and seeing what new song she has embedded into her journal.

Written On a Napkin - The blog of Dave, 23yr old guy who has already seen and experienced more life in various states and countries than I’ve even begun to think about. I’ve been following his journeys since he started blogging about them 2yrs ago when he moved from Houston to New York. Once, I dug through every entry he’d ever written to find his email address so i could tell him how much I enjoyed his blog. He wrote back a quick little response that sorta made me think he doesn’t even spend much time thinking about what he does, that he just does them and keeps going. Made me like him even more.

And of course, Mo Livin’: the Dog Blog - That was him who inserted an animated little ad into my layout code, I’m still trying to figure out how to take it down. He doesn’t update much and I don’t like his smug little attitude either, he’s all hung up on his pedigree and whatnot. Whatever, he’s still cute. Just don’t forget who feeds and hosts your content, squirt.

If these aren’t amusing enough, I could begin listing all the folks I no longer read, but that wouldn’t make much sense would it?

It’s a nice day outside. I’m going for a run before I hit the gym, just cuz treadmills opress me. Then again, the free weights do to. Can’t I just go in there and wear my iPod armstrap thing and just look sweaty? I’m gonna work on this and get back to ya’ll with an update. Happy Monday.

    Hmm. If it isn’t my archnemesis SpriteBoy. Actually, it’s just you being awesome. My hostee told me that you were preaching my awesomeness. Thus, I praise thee. Oh wait, that’s limes. Close enough. Thanks for the mention, your site is fancy and you’re sassy!

    Wow. I’m glad I’m smart enough to go looking for your name on your site, thanks for letting me know… sometimes even my own stupidity amazes me. Thanks for the link, chris. What? I’m double posting? But all the cool girls are doing it! *sob*

    Here’s an idea: howzabout readin’ one of them there BOOK things they have out now? BOOKS, NOT BLOGS. That’s my new bumpersticker, even though I don’t have a car on which to stick it.
