We need to stop wasting our time with private (and occasionally esoteric) nonsense and go mainstream. I'm talking Nickelback of the blogging world. After all, how long can we hide our blog in shame because we're embarassed by the content? Some of it isn't bad. Perhaps we just need to do a little pruning or editing before approaching the masses.
What am I suggesting? That the writers actually tell someone they know about this blog (well, I actually already have told two people - they both claim the blog wouldn't display on their computer; I'll pretend they weren't merely trying to spare my feelings). I'll even dare my partner to publish the URL of this blog as part of his Linked In profile (and I'll further pray that he actually won't).
However, we both must have an appropriate co-worker or two that can be trusted to find some redeeming value among all this gibberish. Or maybe a neighbor. A relative? There must be someone! Let's get our act together and take it on the road!

Perhaps, you can start publishing the url in the rest room. It would be more worthwhile than leaving your number on the stall of the men's room.
I try to keep my personal life separate from my professional life. I cater to the belief of George Costanza when he said "world's would collide, baby" if you were ever to try to converge the two. I'm really afraid of the incredible damage it would cause. Now random placements around town. That, I could buy. How about random placements in the digital world? Like infiltrating other forums?
By the way, I've moved away from Nickelback, and chosen to be more like Favre.
Yes, I understand the "world's collide" theory; however, I'm also one for taking the odd chance every now and again as well. Suppose we become famous bloggers...
Maybe you should be more like Mike. I find Favre to be offensive; but I don't mean to put you on the defensive.
I suppose it may be worth the chance to increase our readership by a smidgen or thinking about your peers, at least a midget. Blog on, I dare say!
I used to live on the same Block as Jordan. He used the same fishing Tackle that I did. His kids and I were on the same Safety patrol, and used to Huddle together in the cold waiting for the bus.
I'll consider it a New Year's resolution. I'll pick an appropriate co-worker or two (who will then know they are being talked about as they read this) some time after the first of the year.
Once we pass that point, maybe we can run some advertising on the blog.
I'm glad you are no longer going to punt-tificate about this, since I'm not going down kicking and screaming on this extra point.
I'm not so near sighted that I don't see the future through these rose colored glasses.
