I've also been kinda wondering the same thing after reading basil's post about learning to blog earlier this week.

And besides, if you'd followed Harvey's advice to a "T", lots of people would not have discovered you and you would not have gotten the level of respect you have in the world of blogs. You were a perfect candidate for blogging what with your rapier wit, enormous intelligence, aptitude for using computers, dogged tenacity when persuing a personal goal, and innate talent for using words judiciously. Heck, you couldn't fail!<br>I think you summed up why you blog in your last few sentences...and I think you went about it the right way. I love reading your ramblings, and I am proud of you.The Big Sister (who's 5'4")noreply@blogger.com
