Yesterday I had the pleasure of being on the Eric Asher show. Eric is a huge supporter of Soldiers’ Angels and has me on frequently to promote supporting the troops. He is an awesome guy and if you don’t listen to his show from 12-3 – YOU SHOULD!!! Anyhoo, Eric also reads Kiss My Gumbo (smart guy too). As we were closing up our interview he asked me, “Howz yer blog?” Well, for those of you that know I have more than one, the question back was, “Which one?” The answer I gave, “Well, Kiss my Gumbo is awesome and such a blast!”

When I tell people I am a blogger (mostly the 30 and up crowd), I still get the whispered, “Could you please explain to me what a blog is – I feel stupid for not knowing???” I could go on and on with an explanation. And NO – personally I do not consider a Myspace a blog. Here is the best definition I could find for you that is all encompassing. BTW – Blog is also a Verb.

Webster’s New Millenniumâ„¢ Dictionary of English
Main Entry: blog
Part of Speech: n
Definition: an online diary; a personal chronological log of thoughts published on a Web page; also called Weblog, Web log
Example: Typically updated daily, blogs often reflect the personality of the author.
Etymology: shortened form of Weblog

Now let’s talk about who can be a blogger? My answer,

“Anyone can have a blog but not everyone can be a blogger.”~Greta~

I’ll be writing more about how to blog and blogging in the near future. What can I say? I am a web geek!

One Reply to “Howz yer blog?”

  1. My favorite irritating response is that when I tell people I blog, they roll their eyes at me. And it’s these same eye rolling idiots that don’t blog – judging me on something they don’t know anything about. It’s like they feel sorry for me to because they think I don’t have a life because I blog.

    Next time I think I’ll slap one of them. HA! Just kidding.
