Dooce Redux

We mentined DOOCE at the beginning of the semester, but you may have forgotten about her. Dooce was the first person fired from her job for blogging, and hence, has become a verb as in "to be dooced." She has also been ranked one of the top 5 most influential bloggers in the world today.

However, I still don't think I've impressed upon you just how entertaining she is. This entry from Tuesday might help. She could even help us talk about Twittering, the new way of blogging from your cell phone. At the very least, she has done a great deal to destigmatize depression.

Very cool!

I had a dog do something similar to this once. He kept digging around the foundation of our house for days. After getting pretty annoyed, Dachshunds tend to be pretty annoying a lot of the time, I decided to check things out. To my surprise, I found a rather large snake perched on one of the holes the dog had been digging at.

I'm just glad it wasn't inside the house!

I am not really a blog reader. I like to read some of my friends blogs just to keep in touch with them but other than that I do not get on and read....maybe because I feel as if I have enough to read???
