next blog...

It probably would help if I remembered my password everytime I come in here. But I have had to reset 2 times already. Just a testament to how random I can be. But actually what's not random are my passwords. Since every site needs a password and/or a site key and/or the catchpa thingy my passwords are pretty much the same and I just keep recycling them and add a 1 or 2 or a capital letter here and there.

So the reason for today's blog kiddies is the NEXT BLOG>> button. I love love LOVE that thing. Look it's right at the top next to the Follow Share Report Abuse links. You never know what you're gonna get. Kinda like Forrest Gump and the whole box of chocolates. One of my favorite artist's Eric Roberson does alot of video blogs which I guess is easier than the typing ones. And then I guess technology makes it easier to do stuff like that because they have those little flip camcorders that I saw just this morning on HSN for the low low price of $79.90... i am digressing (a normal occurance). OK back to the blog. The next blog when I clicked this morning from my blog lead me to something about Laundry Mats which was slighty weird. And then it got me to wondering how many times people click on my site from the next blog>> and how random that function really is. There is somewhat a method to the madness like because Eric Roberson is an musical artist the next site is usually music related. Or if someone is an painter the next site is usually related in that way. I just wonder how 'it' decides what is next!?? I sometimes just keep hitting the button to see what's next.

There are a few things to this feature:
1. Sometimes you may click on it and it takes you to a foreign language (like this one). This makes me feel very small in that this whole BLOG thing is a global dynamic. And then back to the whole existential nature of things where one thing you do has an effect on the entire universe. Or at least that's how I always remembered the theory from Mrs. Parshall's English class, I think 10th grade.

2. If you like the site, it may be hard to go find it again on some rainy afternoon when you think hey remember that blog I went on 3 weeks ago?!? And I guess you could bookmark it. You could have a whole blog bookmark section on your computer. If that's what you do, do you!!

3. Having 3 points is always a good round number for having points but I can't remember what my 3rd point was... so If I remember before I hit post I'll include it. Other wise point 3 will just be random ramblings.

So ends my random thought for today. Come back tomorrow (or maybe even later today should the mood hit me) for a new fresh random topic!!
