Myths and Legends of Blogging

As explained by Frank J. Samples and pithy commentary:


MYTH: People only blog for the money and the babes.
FACT: People also blog for power, out of sense of arrogance, and because they like the clickity-clack sound of the keyboard.

The Anger of Compassion is well-known by the cognoscenti as The Blog Beautiful Women read. But yeah, he's right: it's the keyboard thing that draws me to blogging and keeps me here. As well as the babes.

MYTH: Blogging was predicted by Nostradamus as a precursor to the end of the world.
FACT: Most scholars believe the passage referred to is actually about Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction. When clothes no longer operate properly, the end is nigh.

To be sure. Still, I think the garment in question acted quite properly indeed.
