I'm Tumbling!!

Tumblelogging, that is. Yes, because I have way too much time on my hands, I’ve started yet another blog. Only this one has a different concept. Here’s Wikipedia’s definition of a Tumblelog:

A tumblelog is a variation of a blog, that favors short-form, mixed-media posts over the longer editorial posts frequently associated with blogging. Common post formats found on tumblelogs include links, photos, quotes, dialogues, and video. Unlike blogs, this format is frequently used to share the author's creations, discoveries, or experiences without providing a commentary.

That about covers it! Okay, I’ll be straightforward; it will basically be a collection of shit I find on the web, but it’s still all about me, me, ME! And, since the tumblelog is so much simpler to update, I’ll be updating it much more often. (Probably every day I’m online, but don’t hold me to that.) I’m also going feature a new “song of the day”, everyday. Here is the link:

You can also find updated links under the “tumblelog posts” on this page.

I’m definitely not abandoning this blog, I enjoy writing my drawn out, incoherent rants and raves (see last post), but it is time consuming. I’m still gonna try to post more, but, at the very least, I’ll be posting as often as I have. (this is my 10th post since the end of March.) So don’t you worry loyal readers! All 2 of you!

PS - I googled “tumble” to find a picture, but wasn’t satisfied with the results. So, I searched “falling down stairs” (because I’m violent like that) and found the gem above. But, within that search, I also found this cartoon which gave me a good chuckle:

PS-S – While writing this, it totally occurred to me that I have the perfect soundtrack to this post! It comes from this album, which I am the proud, proud owner of:

Enjoy!

Welcome/Bienvenidos/Bienvenue/Willkommen!

So I was going to try to be really cute and write my first blog entry on the information overload that we suffer from today due to the Internet, DVR, Podcasts, blogs and the like. Then I started to do the tiniest bit of research and got lazy. There’s even more irony in the fact that there’s way too much information out there about information overload.

I also wanted to touch upon the subject of my generation and younger being more self-absorbed and self-important than generations previous, which is completely true, and a shame. This is why (I think) there are way too many blogs. So, now I’m adding mine into the mix. eh, EH! Get it! I guess it’s been said a million times before. Fuck it, so much for trying to be clever. As a matter of fact, I promise that will be my last intentional effort at being clever in this blog. Expect lots of horrendous puns and bad humor.

I really don’t know what business I have even trying to write a blog. Those of you who know me (the only people reading this, I’m sure) know I barely write e-mails or use the telephone. I don’t know what I’m going to fill this blog with. Most likely, nonsense, shit I like, things that make me laugh (and maybe will make you laugh).

Anyhow, enjoy. Or at least keep a frozen smile on your face and pretend to for my benefit. I can see you.
