As you may have noticed, this blog has turned a little gimmicky lately. I have music monday, wordless wednesday and friday funnies and nary a regular old fashioned post in between. I feel kind of guilty about this, but then I realize, I have been very busy. I can’t crank out the thoughtful, heartfelt, quality posts I would like to on a daily basis. In short, I am running out of gas on the solo blog thing. The alternative, since this is really a hobby is to do the slow blogging thing. I am only writing when a great idea hits me, or to navel gaze, in the case of this post.
Some items may interest my public readership, meager as it is. I am open to anybody’s suggestions on what they want to see more of. In fact, I would like to know all your thoughts on my new MWF features. Here is a poll especially for you, the readership I serve. Pick as many as apply.
The problem is, not posting sends my viewership into a tailspin. I am a bit neurotic. I have improved much over the past few years but my neurotic need to please still tugs at me. I need content. So now I am borrowing the good stuff found all over the web, not just for a points of interest roundup but for comics, music, and breath taking photos worth a thousand word post. Perhaps it is a sign of the future that the written word is becoming a thing of the past.
However, to ease the nagging voice in the back of my head decrying that this is unoriginal and uninspired, I have come up with the ultimate rationalization. You see, this is actually a group blog. I administrate, I find stuff, I post other people’s fine work, all around my theme, and largely without their knowledge, but always with a link, of course.
I only contribute my own stuff on those rare occasions inspiration hits. This is my quality control. So, welcome to my own carnival. Contributors welcome, though I do reserve editorial rights.

Doc,
Personally I would like to read posts on some of the things you observe at work and how your gospel knowledge helps you put those events into perspective. Just a thought.
The comics are fine, even funny sometimes.

Dave,
To date the best post I have on that subject can be found here. I will have to see what else I can cook up.
