Discovered the World's First Blog

Well, yesterday was supposed to be band practice, but we had to cancel cause of tests. So I ended up catching up on my TV watching and practicing for Guitarmageddon, which is tonight. I am not really ready. I haven't had much time to practice due to other commitments, but I do think I am good at improv. Improv is more of an in the moment kind of style where you play whatever you feel at the time. If I am feeling musical I should do well. I also discovered the world's first blog yesterday. It was found out by watching TV. There is this show called "Two and a Half Men" and the writer, Chuck Lorre, puts a subliminal message at the end of each show. It lasts 1 second and if you don't spot it you will go right past it. Nowadays Tivo allows for easy pausing. This message was a long drawn out one about a dream with Ellen Degeneras in it. It said #134 on the message, so I thought hmm, maybe he has done this before. A little googling turned up Chucklorre.com and called it his vanity cards. Apparently he has been doing it since his show Dharma and Greg in 1997, dating before the first blog. I would consider it a blog because he posts a quick paragraph and you can comment by sending him email. I went through and read his vanity cards. They are very creative. I suppose if I threw in well crafted stories about seemingly insignificant events this blog would be funny. Oh wait, I guess I already do...

Thought of the Day
"Would it kill you not to be so funny all the time? That's all I'm askin'. This woman thinks I'm very funny and now you're gonna be funny, so what am I gonna be? I'm gonna be a short bald guy with glasses who suddenly doesn't seem so funny."
- George, to Jerry, in "The Visa"

Good luck on the guitar thing. Maybe you could use some influences from your country wake up CD.
