Hundred

Need I say more? This is the hundredth post (counting two unposted drafts...) on this blog. So, time to celebrate, remember the past, etc.. ;-).

The first limerick here was posted on 4th may 2006, and then this blog was only limericks. But afterwards, I started to expand, began writing some personal posts, some about pseudoscience. It was in August that this blog became Bestest Blog of the day, and that cheered me up to no end. The limericks were absent during December-January, where I felt that i was at the nadir of my creativity. But the tide is rising again, or so I hope.

I have made quite some friends due to this blog, most notable Anne and Laevanesce. And I've found that I can write good poems, nice stories, and can actually keep a blog up for more than a month. Anyway... to rejoice this occasion, here are a few limericks and two liners:

A hundred posts, it saith unto me!
And I was, like, filled with glee
But then I realised
That the thing I prized
Was not the blog, but the money!

*Er, kidding. Seriously, I don't get a cent from the google ads here. lol.

Blogs

A blog too personal
Won't outlast it's arsenal
A blog made for readers
Will only get rss feeders

A blog patriotic
Will be visited like the arctic
A blog of conceit
In contests will compete

A blog modest, honest
Will never pass the test
A blog full of rant
Will be treated like Kant

A blog of poetry
Might survive into History.
A blog meant for none
Will be, in thousands, one.

Thunderfear

There was a man from down under
Who was afraid, terribly, of thunder
When a storm struck
He'd curse his luck
And throw everything around, asunder.

His friends would very often wonder
What caused him to fear thunder?
"Is it the sudden noise?
That scares little boys?
He's afraid that he'll lose his toys!"

Tired of all the teasing, he went under
A clouded sky, to face the thunder
His friends were amazed
And he was praised
Now they call him the "boy wonder"!

Well, that's all for this post... hope everything goes well, and I find myself writing the 200th, 300th post of a very popular blog ;-) (Mine is the "Gets only rss feeders kind lol.)
