First blog

i was talking with a friend online today and the discussion at one point was on the origins of the word blog. i find the word to be very enjoyable to say. I decided to google it and it came up that the first time it was used by a man known as Dr. Suess.

In a 1953 story entitled "Scrambled Eggs Super," Dr. Seuss wrote:

I went for the kind that were mellow and sweet

And the world's sweetest eggs are the eggs of the Kweet

Which is due to those very sweet trout which they eat

And those trout ... well, they're sweet 'cause they only eat Blogs

And Blogs, after all, are the world's sweetest frogs

And the reason they're sweet is, whenever they lunch

It's always the world's sweetest bees that they munch

And the reason no bees can be sweeter than these...

They only eat blossoms off Beezlenut Trees

And those Beezlenut Blossoms are sweeter than sweet

And that's why I nabbed several eggs from the Kweet.

yes , apparently blogs are sweet frogs. I cant say that i have ever eaten a frog, but who knows? Well at least i learned something today, thank you dr. suess. And i'd like to thank broo khaglund for revealing this cite to me, i do enjoy a good blog. It is a great way to communicate with people in a non-threatening way. i don't feel shy at all right now, but i'm almost positive i would be awkward to talk to.
